By studying the PSN since it’s launch we know it’s vulnerabilities pretty good right now and unbanning consoles might be as easy as banning consoles. It is an infinite circle of “who-is-better”.
Sounds good to me

If Sony bans us for running legal homebrew, I am filing a class action lawsuit. Who's in?

If this is true then sony may be in contradiction to european law on data protection and The Data Protection Act 1998 in the UK

Sony was right to ban hackers. Fed up of online cheaters using modified games.

I agree. Hackers/jailbreakers/pirates should stay offline.

btw has anyone tried to change the consoleid in charles and see if he's unbanned ? if so, it's a big problem because it means that you can access psn by just changing the console id, and on top of that you can ban a legit user's ID

Good post, but the only thing I disagree with it your logic for asking sony to use more than SSL.
The only eventuality where it isnt secure enough is when a PS3 is jailbroken. Jailbreaking your machine then expecting sony to patch up the vulnerabilities caused by doing so is a bit much.
