PS3 Mandatory Update Upsets Gamers

Sony recently pushed out a mandatory update to all PS3 systems that are connected to the internet.  This update is version 3.21.  What this update does is it makes it impossible to install a third party OS such as Linux onto the PS3.  Sony use to encourage their customers to install Linux onto the PS3 but now Sony has put a stop to third party operating systems from being installed onto their system in order to prevent piracy.  This has of course angered many gamers that have installed Linux onto their PS3 systems because the update removes the third party OS if one is found and disallows another OS from being installed in the first place.  Gamers are upset because they claim that most gamers were not using other OS's for the purpose of piracy but to explore other features that Linux provides to the PS3.  Gaming forums are flooded with people complaining about this update and encouraging each other to contact the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and the BBB (Better Business Bureau) in order to fight this.  I am sure that Sony is also putting the 3.21 version update on all new game discs for gamers who do not have their console connected to the internet.  I believe that a company must do what ever is necessary to protect their investment and I am with Sony on this one.  I can't stand piracy because it raises the cost to video games, DVD's, movie ticket prices, CD's and computer software.  I also believe that people should be paid for 100% of their work.  I do hope that the FCC and the BBB is in favor of Sony.  Good luck Sony!
