A modchip's primary purpose is to play legally obtained import games and expand the capabilities of your console to run homebrew code (Emulators, web browsers, media centers, etc)

This was a really good post. Thank you.

Prick got what was coming to him. I mean honestly you advertise on craigslist about your modding business, probably used no discretion towards selling games, and was selling illegal games. If had had over a 1000 games in his house then I'm sure he was selling a lot and to many people, only a matter of time till an undercover cop finds you.

Q: "Can we look in your laptop?"

"Do you have a warrant"

If they tell you they can get one, tell them you can wait (Be sure to smile).
If they had shit on you to begin with they'd already have a warrant.

LOL...learn your rights.

Don't tell them you can wait, ask them if you are under arrest again, and if you're free to go, and if you are being detained. they're not allowed to detain you any longer than it would take to write you a ticket for whatever it is they're going to charge you with, or arrest your ass.

most people worried about this kind of stuff are guilty. If you are innocent what are you hiding?

As such, it could easily be argued in court that a chip's primary use is to enable the play of legal imported games and fair use backups, as well as enable the use of homebrew code that GREATLY expands the capabilities of the system (a perfect example of this is Xbox Media Center for the xbox 1) ...

XBMC is just as illegal as a pirated game - so no that is not the perfect example ;-)

Use GentooX Media Center Edition as your future example :-P
