PS3 User Agreement TOS (newest patch)

-- Sony has gained court sanction to sue any individuals who have visited the website of one "GeoHot"

-- Within the terms of the EULA you are not the owner of your physical console, rather you are "renting" it from SCEA.

-- All warranty issues regarding service interruption caused by SCEA is null and void. This includes but is not limited to: the system suffering "YLOD", the system not turning on or not connecting online, etc.

-- SCEA reserves the right to ban you from PSN and / or "brick" (make physically and wholely unusable) your console at its sole determining if it feels that you have in any way violated the EULA.

-- SCEA is not responsible for the quality of game patch updates or for their specific timing. Pressuring SCEA in regards to this via its customer service interface can result in being banned from PSN if the incident is viewed as disruptive.

-- SCEA reserves the right to ban any user or brick any PlayStation 3 console it deems necessary to preserve the safety of its clienelle and furthermore, reserves the right to do this without any forwarning or post-action communication with the offending individual(s).

-- If you do not agree to the EULA your PSN account will be deleted and all items, funds, etc. within shall become the legal property of SCEA. Aggressive attempts to alter this can and will be viewed as harrassment and can and will be met with the bricking of your console.

These were found on the internet and are not the word for word verbatim of the actual SCEA EULA. I am not responsible for any errors that might be present in the above information. Still ... Better safe then sorry.
