SONY acts like every PS3 owner with CFW is a thief... BUT... THEY ARE THIEVES BY THEMSELVES STEALING DATA FROM EVERYONES OWN PS3 !
Even the police has not the possiblity to come to your house and search for something withouot a reason but SONY does this without asking anybody ! Next time maybe someone is standing in my living room to search for something illegal ?
They have the right to limit the access to the PSN but from where do they know if you are doing something illegal ?
BECAUSE THEY ARE THIEVES !!
So the Thieves are SONY itself... think about it... what's coming next from them ??
Sony is only going to encourage more and more "I want to break your security" type people to become more focused on their hardware when you go after the public and your customers.
they are investing for protection of future system. if this works... their future console going to provide a major roadblock for hackers to hack the system (in terms of legal).
A huge waste of money and misdirection of resourses IMO. It's stupid when companies spend more on fighting piracy than they actually make from fighting it.
On a torrent site I frequent, the most downloaded ps3 games is around 4000 (fifa 11), compare that to the most downloaded 360 game which is at 39000+ downloads. Microsoft isn't blowing a gasket about this at all and it seems they are taking a position almost opposite to sony on it all.
They show hackers a little more love with the recent kinect and dealing with hackers on the recent windows phone 7 release. Guess that's just sony for you.
