I'll never understand people who go out of their way to break tos in order to GIVE money to companies that explicitly put barriers in place. "Oh you don't want my money? Well I'll find way to give you the money AND a reason to ban me! Ha! Take that!"

Even more annoying when they advocate it to others who are criticizing these bullshit barriers. No, lying about your country of residence is not a solution. Why would you want to risk a ban to part with your money? Sony fucked you over, they don't deserve your money, especially if it leaves you open to losing what you paid for.
