and that's probably not accurate - btw they ofcourse aren't able to actively ban people as they don't have access to the banlist
What they claim to be able to do is change the PS3 ID they use and if they happen to use one that belongs to another user that user's ps3 might get banned from PSN by Sony for using CFW
But, a PS3 ID surely consists of 20 or more signs (numbers,letters,..), so there are at least 36(0-9;a-z)^20 possible IDs out of which probably only the 50million shipped PS3s use are unlocked for PSN, so that's 3,74x10^-22 % (0.000...(15 zeros)..000374 %) chance to hit a real one without knowing it before.
