There have been vulnerabilities in ME and PSP, and there MAY BE a way for users to bypass these checks.

- A simple, user doable hack even exists.

Again, no one assumes that any system can be made 100% bulletproof. But that was never the point is it?
The end game is for manufacturers to harden their devices against cheaper tools and raise the barrier to entry such that it costs a fortune for hackers who might even try. /6
