I'm donating, I didn't jailbreak my PS3 nor do I plan to in the future, the point here is not piracy. He was the one that jail broke the iphone resulting in making my life a ton better and I have never done any piracy on Cydia or the Apple store products. He's giving people an option to explore the hardware, how they want to use it is their own business, that's what being in the US is all about, freedom, yet coporations want to change the rules and the playfield and take our freedom away by limiting the things we can do to something we fucking shelled out a good amount of money for. Too many people are just thinking that this is a piracy stunt and are completely missing the fucking point.

spot on.

Yes and no.
He's gullible in thinking that people will do good with said codes... while exploring the hardware is nice, yeah, the absolute majority uses his discovery to do malicious whatever... I've been following the stuff, and so far, nothing of real helpful use has even begun development. By nature, people are bad IMO. This is why all this shit is happening instead of anyone getting useful programs.
I can't beleive that he believes that what he has done will have major benefit... he gave the monkey a grenade, pretty much.

Sony can ban all the fuckers that cheat or pirate, I don't give a rat's ass about that part at all, their fear is that their business model would be crushed by it and they should indeed do something about it, but this is not the fucking answer.

It sure doesn't seem like there is a means of getting rid of them completely now that the door is blown wide open (with the talk of them unbanning themselves and the sort)...now if Geohot and his team had taken requests from the community as to what homebrew apps they would like instead of just exposing the files for everyone to "use for themselves", I'd have no issue with that.
But to compromise PSN to prove a point...no sympathy from me.
If it was a PC, I could just join a secure lobby, or with a host that I trust. This is different.
Unless you'd like to explain?

a closed and controlled "homebrew" environment? .................................. sigh....
again, the point is not piracy or cheating, you are still missing the big picture. If you've really read all I've typed, then you know that it's not really just about the PS3, PSN, or Sony. It really is much bigger than that. People are getting butt hurt and blinded by a gaming console and can't see beyond that apparently.
