Besides, can't you change it? Well, changing it is trivial on a PC. Dunno about the PSP.
You can spoof it. IDK about changing it.
I guess even that would be possible if you had the knowledge to completely reverse engineer the firmware. But hey- you know more about that stuff than I do ZiNgA. :p
EDIT: I know DAX said that SONY had encrypted a threatening message to him one time in one of the firmwares. :0

I can't believe Magixcian is showing off his mac address like that.
Let's really think about that for a minute folks...
For the common PSP forum member, it is no big deal to reveal your MAC address. (Unless you have a homebrew dev pissed off at you. I remember one time all the QJ devs got pissed and blocked someone from using any of their releases - lol. One plugin raphael released, would even check for his MAC address, and make his PSP reboot over and over. LOL)
Anyway, as much money as these guys are causing the industry with allowing the SONY's new wave of encrypted games to be played/pirated. They could do things. Imagine if SONY blocked his mac addy from PSN on him. Or even worse set up some mac address check in the firmware, and have it cause a unique problem for them while programming a new cfw. Hell it could hamper progress for considerable time, before they figured out the dirty trick...
Or even worse then that, they could implement a firmware check that would upload his IP Addy to SONY whenever he connected online. Then send him a cease and desist order, or try to sue him...
Maybe I'm just being overly paranoid... (I usually am :p)
Maybe it's a spoofed mac. or better yet, maybe it's the mac address of somebody whom MagiXcian knew of and is pissed off with, so that Sony would see it and blocked it. What a way to get back. lol

Perhaps the Sony devs just screwing around. Message would never actually get anywhere...
GEN doesn't really work properly for me.
Error detailed in the other thread.... I'm putting a link here in case someone sees this thread but not the other one, and knows the solution to my problem.
