If, however, you bought your equipment, then signed a release for the card; I would be in total harmony with the legality.

I agree with this ... BUT also if they don't want me to decode their signal ... keep it out of my house ... OH and I was NOT joking about making my own smart card ... who do you think helped designed these ....

Silly question, why did these fools (and I use this in the kindest sense of the word) who built the units make the JTAG pads so large that a blind and drunk man could solder to them? Then compound this security flaw by cutting an opening in the bottom of the unit, so said blind-drunk man doesn't even have to open the unit up? Isn't this akin to leaving your car running with the keys in it while you go shopping? To me, this is inviting someone to probe around.
