Would Sony just throw the software on millions of CD and ship them out without looking over the software first? I believe they WOULD HAVE to look over the software...as a step to protect their company from danger.
*WHAT* danger? I mean, there's that button they clicked, the one that said 'I accept, even though there's no hint that this includes a colon cleansing with a scrub brush made from a week-old roadkill porcupine'. Look around - there's no danger that a large corporation will feel any liability for anything perpetrated by its software. Only people who have to worry are places that employ less than 100 people to write malicious software.
