I didn't miss anything.  Sony left a glaring flaw in their security and Hotz found a way to exploit and shared the exploit with others.  I strongly believe that we should be able to do what we want with what we own and don't see why anyone would disagree.  Ban the pirates and leave the modders alone. 

And if there was an absolute means of keeping the pirates and hackers off the PS3, then I'm all for it.

However, from the recent news I've been hearing, it doesn't sound so easy. If geohot was really against the pirates and just wanted to use the hack for his own use, he wouldn't have blown it wide open for the crooked people to use. Sorry, but he could have proven his point without compromising the PSN.

But like I said before, if companies use this as an excuse to take away my, or anybody else's freedom of using the console how he or I please, then I'm ready to toss any of their products out my window, and will never buy a product from them again until they revise their practices.

Don't make broad generalizations about people being bandwagon-riders or "not able to see the bigger picture".

I wouldn't make broad generalizations if they weren't true.  Never has this site been so anit-pirate and amazingly it occured after the PS3 was hacked.
