The whole thing with Sony is a joke. I absolutely disagree with their decision to remove OtherOS, but that doesn't make it okay for someone to share. After all, it's only fair for them to want to protect themselves from piracy. Everyone knows by now that with the way licensing works, Sony has the right to make whatever changes to the machine they deem necessary because they still own the software. Geohotz is seen as some kind of hero because he made piracy ten times easier, but Sony obviously isn't going to let that fly. And as a result, all of their customers get screwed...far more than the company itself (their sales are UP).
Sadly, Sony wasn't the end of it. Other subsidiaries have been attacked, as well as Square Enix, Codemasters, and others in the gaming industry. These companies have awful protection and we unfortunately have to suffer as a result because these self-righteous "hackers" think they're owed something. What really gets me is that they try to act like they're doing it for US, like they're heroes of the people. In reality, they're ruining gaming and the internet for many people.
