Yes, and one can bypass those write protections with physical access. I'm going with what's written here as truth - if that's out of date, well... wouldn't surprise me, really: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/HEAD/write_protection.md https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/HEAD/wri... > Note that even in case of the devices protected by the SE, opening up the device and disconnecting the battery would still disable write protection. Unless I'm missing something, the "read only" region is simply a normally write-protected region of the flash chip, and with physical access, there a range of ways to rewrite that region.
