Good, because the argument was moot. If they still wanted to use Linux, they simply shouldn't update past the update where it was removed, simple as that.

You say it as though people had a legitimate choice.  They didn't.

That's an ultimatum.

 

Sony got away with telling people, DO THIS OR ELSE.

On principle, Sony should have lost this.

No, Sony said that you can continue to use Linux, but if you do, you can't use the PlayStation Network

It is very simple, and this is why Sony make consumers agree to things, so that they can keep control of the system

People had a choice to continue playin games or remove otherOS. ps3 firmware updates also come on game discs not just when you connect to the psn. The choice wasn't otherOS or psn, it was otherOS or playing games.
