preventing users from sharing their PSP Vita with friends and family with their own user accounts
I didn't get the memo saying that sharing = piracy.

Actually this is a good thing. Ive seen several cases over the years where PSP owners who preowned thier PSP's did not delete thier PSN account information from the system, including credit cards.
I, myself, dont bother creating multiple region accounts to access region exclusives (a policy which is confusing to me to begin with) i wont be affected in the slightest.
To circumvent region locks, you have to reformat because you can't have multiple accounts. That affects people. I guess. I don't know, from your post it seemed like one of us didn't understand how it works.
How is this a good thing to prevent identity theft? People don't delete their info in the PSP, okay...
But people will also forget to delete theirs in the Vita, right? And if you could access that info on a PSP, you will also access it on a Vita, right? Then how does this prevents identity theft, it only requires you to use the previous owner's account.
I don't understand how the PSP works with PSN because I never knew anyone who actually connected their PSP.

Why does it seem like everyone is making a big deal out of this. I hardly ever share my PSP or IPod with people anyway. The Vita will be no different.
So I guess you skipped that part in childhood when people shared consoles and games like crazy (nobody knew piracy, anyone who could crack consoles and get copied games was a deity).
It would have been even better with different profiles in the same console.
I might not share it with everyone I know, but it's kind of useful to share it with your own family. I mean, it's your family.
