So Geohot is the guy whho's cheating on all those PS3s and whatnot?

I had no idea.

He gave everyone the means to. I won't use the old keys and house argument here, but you see what I'm talking about.

Guess what, that doesn't matter.

People are allowed to hack their systems! He is! You are! I am! You aren't allowed to do some things past that, like maliciously mounting attacks against the network or other players, but you are free and clear to arrange your hardware however you like and help others do the same thing. You are not responsible for what they do beyond that, not legally.

I stand on that it does. What he did is just being criminally careless - since it allows the latter. If that is bound by law indeed, then Sony wouldn't even start to dive into it, but from here on, it seems that the Judge will be the one that'll decide.
