True. However Nintendo doesnt seem to make as big a deal about it as everyone else.
They actually made a big deal about it around the time the R4 DS was released; they tried to shut down a lot of manufacturers of the device and retailers

There's nothing special about that video. It looked like it was a signed package running on stock FW. And I wish people would stop saying Jailbreak when talking about consoles for fuck sakes.

umm..that's exactly what makes is special...
the pkg/self signing was apparantly done with a diffrent crypto, which is what has stalled homebrew signing since the release of the key's, geohot just demonstrated that he's discovered how to run homebrew on stock FW

Thought Math figured it out days ago and even released a PC decryptor for XMB run pagkages.

the decrypter is apparently much different then re-signing/signing, but in short, Math hasn't figured it out yet, i believe he's still working on getting make_self to sign correctly, then to get npdrm working(which geohot demonstrated in the video)

Thought a signer for service mode SELFs was done already, and PKG signing/encryption/decryption was only stalled because of file format understanding. Kakaroto's CFW could already install PKG files and run them.

geohot's the only one who has succesfully signed an self, which he hasn't released the tool to do so yet, and now has finished getting npdrm working for package installation
i'm farily certain Kakaroto's CFW simply replaces the lv2self with a debug version to enable installation, i don't believe he actually did any signing to create a new self

Ah, I presumed he would have tried running one at least. Guess not. I don't see why GeoHot is suddenly interested again anyway.

not sure, but tbh, without him, we'd be weeks, if not months away from this level of a hack
edit: @zero, not certain exactly what the s stands for, but i don't think it stands for signed

If all homebrew developers signed their apps like this and didn't bother with a patched firmware, we could practically sit on official firmware with ISO loaders and homebrew and PSN access and be undetectable.

There's nothing they can do, EVER, when your code runs before their.
