 The creators have the say, and the least we can do is respect that. So if anyone doesn't like the PS3 and its values, you're better off donating/supporting a company that makes products to your liking and values, rather than giving to a dead end cause as is the case with Geohot.

And what happens in an endgame case when ALL companies that offer products force you to play by their rules? This is what the current case will decide.

It really won't. People are making a mountain out of a mole-hill. The laws are already in place, this ruling isn't going to change a thing.

Future cases are ruled based on the outcomes of previous cases. Why do you think that lawyers refer to previous case outcomes within the trial? The ruling might not always go that way, but it would give it a tremendous boost towards the side of corporate control.
