What they've done is esoteric enough that most people won't get it.
Most mainstream reporters won't get it, and even if they do their
editors won't get it. The story will circulate on the Internet, amongst
techno geeks, and the vast majority of consumers will never know.

If enough people get to hear of this, Sony stand to lose a gigantic amount
of money.

What I found really shocking was not so much that Sony did it, as that it did
it so badly. With the resources it has at its disposal, Sony has shown itself
to be managed by the same sort of plonkers that infest every other
organisation. You could expect a multinational corporation to act in a high
handed manner. I would also expect that it would try to do so effectively,
discreetly and in a manner that would draw as little attention (of the bad
sort) to itself as possible. Not the case here.
