As far as I know, I am a free agent with respect to the xbox360, although Im sure there are elements that would rather that not be the case.
And no, I have no access to nor posession of any confidential information on the Xbox360, nor do I desire such informationthat kind of information would be nothing but trouble for me. I know as much as (if not less than) the rest of you do, as I have not touched the hardware myself yet. And, I am quite happy to read about everyones adventures hacking the Xbox360 on the web and in the channels; Ive got a ton of projects going on right now, and some personal issues too (like a pesky, psycho cheatin ex-girlfriend that thinks shes entitled to half my assets and wont leave me aloneshes filed a lawsuit, and its not about hacking, my friends. Its all about greed and pathetic faux-melodrama).
Maybe somebody will satisfy my curiosity about the console before I even get a chance to buy one!
His statment: "although Im sure there are elements that would rather that not be the case" means that he is conscious of the eyes that will be watching him that are not looking on in the same respect as us. Bunnie will be fine just as he was last time because all he does is figure out how the system works. He figures out what makes it tick. If you notice with the original xbox there was nowhere that he actually modified the code to make the console do what he wanted. The only thing he did that was illegal was post the tsop contents online. He immediately complied as his intent was not to break the law but merely break the console's security for the sake of doing it. I honestly don't think Bunnie gives a crap about homebrew code, emulators, and especially not stealing games. He's just doing it to see if he can. It's an entirely new situation this time around. We didn't know him last time. There was no pressure and nobody knew he was doing it. He did it and published the information. There's nothing we as a scene can do except make it easy on him and hope he takes the challenge on. When I say make it easy I mean get him the console and leave him the hell alone.
