What are the legal penalties for the FCC violations if the code should allow the hardware to be programmed contrary to US laws? How many "Cease to exist" letters will this draw from lawyers?
$500 may not be enough.
- defrost 3y agoSome years ago in the early 1980s I was involved with a team that wrote drivers that allowed custom hardware to be programed to shear a sheep. Of course, as a corollary, the code for these drivers also allowed that same hardware to be programmed to commit murder .. which I imagine to be contrary to US laws. I would posit that had some nefarious villian done so we would not have been held accountable for the action of others contrary to US law, not the least of which due to our presence in Australia.
