That'd be easy, just rip the RFID tag from a legit cap and stick it on the fake one. Circumvention without any interaction by the manufacturer of the second party capsules. People have been doing that sort of thing on printer cartridges as long as I can remember.
- kbaker 13y agoNo, the machine could store and reject the capsule ids that have been used to prevent this. And maybe write a 'used' bit into the tag memory to prevent its use on other machines.
- yardie 13y agoAnytime you set a ROM to allow writes you are opening yourself to circumvention. If they can write to record used capsule IDs someone else can rewrite with 0s. If you can write a bit to make the capsule expired or used someone else can rewrite the bit back to full. Repeatedly, the market has spoken and no one wants DRM if it doesn't provide a superior product. iTunes Fairplay is dead, replaced with iTunes Plus.
