Personally I don't feel Sony had any right whatsoever to attack Geohot, at all.  And I am VERY against piracy but the fact reamins Geo didn't commit piracy, he never broke the law.

But what Anon is doing by threatening the PSN and going after high ranking Sony officials families and such is beyond rediculous.

no he just published the tools to commit piracy and ruin the experience of real gamers looking to enjoy our games.

Sony had every right to take Geo to court.  The problem here is not the lawsuit itself, it is the fact that the court ruled in Sony's favor (when really they should have thrown it out to begin with). 

Why should the court's have thrown this case out?

The amount of evidence Sony had should not have been enough to warrant the court looking into giving away private information such as the IP address of the people who watched the video. That is the part that should have been thrown out, not necissarily the case itself.

Was it enough for a civil suit against Geo? Or enough to take the video down permanently?  That is up to the courts to decide.
