(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I made this beacuse many people are wondering and panicing about banning so im clearing it up a little bit.

After having a quicklook onto Sony's PS3 Terms of Use I noticed a few points that could affect users that have hacked the PS3.

Here are just some:

Stop getting worked up ffs. Give it a rest and chill out with a biffter.


Yeah if you exploit PSN network by cheating in a game, beacuse mainly people with CFW host challenge lobbys which exploit PSN network for some users.. people get deranked etc.
