Governments and companies shouldn't have to supplement for bad parents. It sounds like Sony just bent over and took it.

Maybe you have no idea what videogames are for koreans young players. It's a faith, like manga for japan.

Don't be so surprised if they are trying to help those guys to not be sick at school, and exhausted, playing an entire night, instead of sleep ready for the next day doing something profitable

That's absolutely true. Korea rule about it. Wondering when this kind of method will be used worldwide

Over all, a way of play will always be possible, either from korea, just using an american account. Only way to fix it, is reading the user ip. If ip is korean, no PSN access , either using an american account

Actually i don't know about PSN in Korea, never created a Korean PSN account.

But i do know that usually Korea uses that method for every online service.
