While technically this correct, in practice you cannot always de-authorize your consoles.
*You must MANUALLY deauthorize your PSN account on EACH PS3 which you have ever logged in.*
That means:
If your PS3 crashed and you were unable to get to the deauthorize menu item, you lose that "slot" forever.
If you reformat YOUR OWN PS3 without deauthorizing your PSN account, you lose that "slot" forever.
If you have shared your PSN account with someone and they don't deauthorize the account, you lose that "slot" forever.

The option to install Linux is removed in the new 3.0 firmware.
The new 3.0 firmware is required to play online.
Old owners have the "option" of retaining the ability to install Linux, or giving up the ability to play any games online.
The ambassador should have given something like a collection of classic American music on cassette tape.
He asks what he can do to "convert more people to become buyers". You can't convert people that wouldn't have bought your game in the first place. The only way to stop people copying your game is to provide more value to a so-called pirate such that the "pirate" gets more utility from the game by paying for it than by downloading it. If your game sucks and provides only marginal utility, even if he couldn't play the game for free the game he wouldn't have paid for it.
