S
ony only have limited access to our PS3's through the PSN network, they don't really have any access to our hard drive since it is illegal, it is your hard drive, you own it and so it is yours, sony don't have any right to look into it, same goes for PC, you don't want microsoft looking into your hard drive just because your running windows. It's what your hard drive uplods to sony when you do something, such as the boot data upon start up.

The platform-destroying piracy rampant on PSP makes it clear exactly how much is at stake. To date, Sony’s response to the jailbreak has been limited to mandatory firmware updates and revoking PSN access to those that refuse to use official system software.

However, a report by Digital Foundry claims that Sony can take far more drastic measures. Even if you’ve never signed up for a PSN account, your console will communicate with Sony servers every time it boots up. That initial load process is used to upload error logs, download updates to the “What’s New” module, and a list of recently-run applications, including any unauthorized backup manager software.

Sony has yet to ban any consoles for taking advantage of the jailbreak, but the terms and conditions of the PlayStation Network make it clear that Sony has the authority to carry them out. Thanks to the system’s constant self-reporting feature, “the company even has the means to irrevocably disable your console should it so wish,” rendering affected PS3 consoles unusable, online and off. But will Sony ever use such a drastic measure? And if so, how will the hacker scene retaliate?
