People know your full of it when you have to exagerate to this extent, sony didnt leave the keys on the front door, it took years for hackers to find it (obviously took a long time). 

And even if it did apply, it doenst matter where people find youyr keys, robing people is illegal and amorla and a douch thing to do either way, how you could try justify it is disgusting, but i guess thats the kind of people hackers like these are, disgusting.

I wish they could ban people from PSN as they wish, but it seems the hacker bastards that you support wont even let them do that. WHta was taht new PSN hack again?, doesnt it let people unban themselves and even ban legitament users?, of how noble these hackers are... they are the scum of the earth.

SOny is protecting legidament users from dealing with cheating hackers and from hackers enabling thisngs that allow piracy, GEOhot is one of the, what he did enables piracy and cheating, tehy should show no mercy.

It only took hackers years because they weren't looking. However, once they started after the OtherOS capability was taken away, it didn't take them long. Sony had a major hole in it's security where the random seed generator returned the same number each time. Sony literally opened the door for them to take the key.

Once again, read my previous post. I am all for banning from PSN. Sony needs to pursue it more. If hacks are indeed made to change PSN account details, then Sony can fix those. It's a server security issue, which is theirs to begin with. I do not condone piracy or cheating.

Keep in mind that hackers do NOT always mean they are pirates or cheaters. Hackers also add homebrew functionality. What if a hacker added PS2 backward compatibility for PS3 systems for people to use?

That's actually complete bullshit. I remember articles popping up left and right during 2007 and 2008 about how certain hackers tried to hack the PS3 and failed. They made constant attempts and none of them worked, so saying that they didn't care is only a sign of ignorance that starts when someone thinks the hacking scene progresses as soon as Geohot makes an attempt on something. 

Hackers are completely in the wrong in your scenario as well. If someone is attacked, I don't blame the victim for not being able to protect themselves, when the attack shouldn't of even have happened in the first place.

Hackers may not all be piraters and cheaters, but I'm guessing that the majority of them are. I'd also like to know what large homebrew functionalities have been added to the PS3 since it was hacked, because I can already list several games that have been leaked, online games that have been cheated in and a few extra illegal issues that have popped up since the hack. The negatives seem to be outweighing the pros by a pretty decent margin.
