they shouldnt be able to disable your ps3 cus its your property once purchased, and i think they r dammed no matter what they do. The hacked ps3s get disabled so they dont make no money off them, but if they dont disable them then they r just goin to upload games onto the system with then also leads to no one purchasing the games. So it wud seem sony is stuck it a 20% less profit then they shud be getting.
