Sony is in the same class for this. They removed the option for "Other OS" on the PS3, and they suffered dearly for it.

That seems more a handslap, not a deterrent.

Technology advancement (e.g., remote changes to blackbox products) makes many abuses easier than they used to be, and market forces don't seem to be working well enough, so I think we need strength of law as a check on abuses.

suffered dearly?

There was a lot of complaining online, but the class action was a minor inconvenience and they now have a pretty solid lead with the ps4.
