I think Sony wants this list to be absurdly long, because they plan to use these IPs to "prove" the distribution of the key, according to this reddit comment: http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/fxkkv/sony_to_track_you_via_ip_address_if_you_ever/c1jeoft http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/fxkkv/sony_to_track_... "If you read the legal ruling, it's very clear that this judge's ruling is being done so that any information found is designated as Attorneys Eyes Only, meaning that it is restricted to anything relevant to the case (and specific matter being challenged) at hand is disclosed, and anything else summarily forgotten. Hell, the document makes clear that this information is for jurisdictional discovery only, which determines whether or not Geohot can be tried in California." "Relevant case law allows Sony to subpoena records to determine jurisdiction. They can subpoena Geohot's host because it's pertinent to whether or not his hack had an impact in California, and that the distribution of the key took place. They're allowed to subpoena his tweets to see how many people in California read them. The same goes for the other handful of companies they've subpoenaed." This won't stop me from boycotting Sony from now on, though. I was actually planning to buy a PS3 to play blu-rays and maybe start playing video games again. No more.
