@Ajescent - If you could stop blatherign about inane bullshit for liek two minutes and actually read what others are writing you might be able to get it through your extremely thick skull that the biggest issue here is that Sony has gotten people's IP addresses for merely watching a youtube video, and not everybody who watched that video had the intention of replicating the process. There is nothing they can do with that information that is at all legal, other than posses it, and I can assure you they didn't pay a lawyer to go get a list of numbers that are in and of themselves useless. So, you see, what anonymous is attacking them for is the fact that they are clearly about to do something nefarious themselves. I really don't get this logic that it's okay to break the law just because someone else might have. And hacking your console has already been held in court as legal, BTW. What Sony is suing Geohot for is breach of contract, which con only apply if it's proven as a certainty that he had a PSN account.
@ant - Yes, but regardless of which choice you make Sony is still taking away advertised functionality. That's a big no-no, and history isn't on their side in regards to who wins these types of lawsuits. Oh, and to help clear up that second mistake you made there, PSN was announced before the launch of the PS3 and launched day and date with the system. There was never a time when PSN was not treated by Sony as a free online service primarily dedicated to the PS3.
You do not have the right to never be offended.
