Geohotz hasn't done anything illegal, whether or not people use his work for piracy (Though if a certain bill in Canada gets passed it will be illegal here... hint hint... write your PMs to not let bill C-32 pass).  The only thing that's possibly illegal is that he published a key that may be protected under copyrite law.  But there's a problem with that, the key might not be copyrited since it's supposed to be random and their coders screwed up and made that random number return 4.  The only way Sony will win this trial is if that key is copy protected and if it is Geohotz will loose and he shouldn't have released the keys but the way to get it.
