"Liberation of the Freebox", A slightly crazy Frenchman embarks on a quest to find exploit and write a complex exploit chain, using PrDoom and the Linux HFS+ driver to gain root privileges on his set-top box. All this in order to unlock the recording of somewhat rubbish TV channels such as TF1 and M6.

And he waited almost ten years and the retirement of the hardware to reveal it because he didn't want it to be patched.

If you are into hardware emulation "From silicon to Darude sand-storm" is fun.
