Comment on Hacking old hardware by renaming to .zip [video]

Why would you say "semi-legally"? Nothing "semi" here. What is "semi-legal" is making hardware e-waste by deciding it is "no longer supported". It is "semi" legal because it is legal under the corrupt political systems in most of the world but is criminal against humanity and the planet we all call home. In that sense if you can prevent e-waste trough any means you are a hero.

The semi legal process it's reverse engineering the code. I watched the video she uses gidra and other descompilation tools. The video it's really good
