because i'm a pessimist and also feel powerless to change this trend, i'm going to proceed from the assumption that the hardware i have or buy this year is the last i'll be buying for the foreseeable future.

not saying this to dishearten anyone, and i really will try to change things, but this is my backup plan.

No one who does hardware security believes that any system is bulletproof, but do you really think that circumventing these things will always be a simple firmware mod or hardware hack?
