Sony no longer bans accounts for having offensive PSN IDs

Sony has confirmed it has changed its protocol for dealing with potentially inappropriate PSN ID usernames.

Going forward, PSN IDs deemed to violate PSN's ToS will instead be swapped out for a temporary placeholder ID that reads 'TempXXXX' (thanks, Gamasutra).
