Time to bust out some good ol' Abe Lincoln for you guys.

Except theres no sacrifice of liberty- I can still hack my ps3 if I want and do with it what I will

If Sony wins then your PS3 modding could be punishable by law.

Are we talking about the Geohotz case? Because they are only going after him for distribution. 

Not true actually.  I'd suggest reading the charges against him.

Just read the nature of the action, they are complaining that they created and distrubted the hack. I don't see anything else.

Unlawful circumvention = what every person who uses his hack would be doing.

The two are lumped together, so its unlikely hacking your ps3 would be charged without distribution. And even so, talk about unenforcable.
