Hmm.. well.. let me gues..
As someone pointed, what if they can change ID of their console.. Than, it would make sense. First, they wouldn't be banned at the start of PSN, and secondly, if they change ID for another, and the ID belongs to other console, then sony will ban "legal"console. So i think, this is, what the article was about.. not that they will ban you, but SONY will ban ID console, which have had ID generated by this hacker.. And, that could be possible, if a "patch"can chage PS3 IDs and pretend to be like other console (they will be unbanned), so they really ban YOU, and without any warrning.. this could get even worse :(
BTW.. as someone has said, that PS4 will be hacker proof.. sorry to dissapointed you.. It wouldn't be.. everything is a math.. it only need some data to know, how it count.. EVERYTHING has been /will be hacked.. soon or later..
And don't join it with the LINUX.. it only show, how great the system is.. but it really depends how you use it ..
The more I read the "console flamewars", the more i love my dreamcast :D
