I wish this had been tested in court. It would have been groundbreaking to have a ruling that Sony has no power over the machine's software after they sell it (which is the only result that wouldn't produce chaos).

Same. Now we're gonna see some other fucked up company trying to act like what I bought is their property.

If you remember, APple tried to push off jailbreaking as illegal and they got screwed by that, so the sooner another retard company comes along and gets slammed by the courts for their shit business practices, the better.

Though, this action has never been about removing the right of people to modify what they own.
