Says producer Steven Ter Heide (via CVG):
The ability for one person to ruin people's games is not a good prospect obviously, so we're working with Sony on the moderation side.
We're looking at people misbehaving, ... [ read the full article ]

Those who cheat to win are just a slightly higher grade of loser.
Those who cheat and lose have gone beyond failure.
When laws allow unlimited ownership of ideas, it is to a society as iron fusion is to the core of a star.
When verified realities lead us to anger, we must learn to reevaluate our beliefs.

This is a good move. I like having a hacked console or handheld but using it to cheat online sucks for everyone. If you have to result to hacking in order to win then maybe you shouldn't play the game at all. Maybe you should quit gaming all together.

Well said. It sucks even more when you're playing Paintball and people won't go out when tagged. Makes me want to pull out a real gun.

But don't hackers only use homebrew on a hacked system that's what geohot keeps telling himself and anyone else who'll listen.

No, incorrect. Geohot is saying that homebrew is what was intended for the hack, however once the hack was out he knew that someone else may develop it further to allow backup games. He states he was not interested in this part himself, thus never developed a CFW that would run backups.

Which is why GeoHot will probably win, assuming he can get a decent lawyer team AND SOny hasn't already bought the trial. Jailbreaking is legal under DMCA, at least in the US, and that's exactly what he did.
It was a smart move to not try to develop a pirate-ready CFW.

Simple answer towards the solution; get rid of leaderboards/stats all together.
Tracking that info not only encourages cheating, but it ruins the gameplay for everyone.
Yes, many of us don't give a darn about stats, but it only takes one person on your team who's more worried about their kill/death ratio than working as part of the team to ruin the game for everyone else.
Objectives which require teamwork turn in to nothing more than camping sniper fests.

Nobody wants to play with a cheat so this sounds good but;
When did Sony ever do anything in moderation?
By monitoring more closely performance will take a hit and privacy will be blown away.
And they will be closer if not able to tell if your console is modified and even brick it if they wish?
It doesn't sound good to me if you look at what might be really happening.
