3. Linux removal was because of geohot and similar users abusing that feature, and is why there are still a plethora of cfw available for the ps3. If it werent for the Initial abusers of this feature that enabled the ability for pirating games and hacking games it wouldn't have been removed.


Wow, GeoHotz must have wrecked that security good, huh? And it got to the point where Sony were helpless to do anything but to remove it? Are you shitting me here?

Could you imagine Microsoft discontinuing Windows support once somebody found a vulnerability in the Operating system, or MySQL or PHP being discontinued after their last major security exploit? No, neither could I, which is why I don't buy Sony's story that they had no other choice BUT to remove it...
