Will you be upset when PS4 has very similar used games policies and the PS4 EyeToy device functions in very similar ways?

We already know the PS4 will have the same "instant on" cability which means it will be "always on". Seems only logicial that the Eyetoy would be able to respond to "Playstation On" or whatnot. It also seems highly likely that the Eyetoy will be included with every PS4 (if this hasn't been confirmed yet, I'm sure it will be by E3). So won't this Eyetoy also be watching you the entire time your PS4 is on? Sony has never made any statements towards whether the PS4 would work without the Eyetoy.

Should we all jump to conclusions and say the PS4/Sony will be stalking us and blocking used games since they have not been clear on any of it so far?!?!?!?!

The ps4 will get the same reaction if it's going to pull the same crap.
However we should not jump too conclusions, nothing has been confirmed yet unlike with the xbox one.

Sony has a bigger incentive to make it possible to play without internet, since they sell a lot more in countries with poor internet.
So far the eye toy has been an extra, there are no plans to fully integrate it in the OS, no reason for it to required to be always on.
As far as used games, the statement of leaving it up to publishers is very worrying. However for now the rumors and suggestions point to the ps4 not requiring internet. That would exclude the draconion drm system of xbox one.

Anyway all eyes will be on Sony for this, if they pull the same crap I'll keep enjoying this gen for a couple years longer.
