Flapping about, feeling morally superior… did you even try to search for an answer or did you just want to virtue signal? Take a look at RIsc, or Arm… or w/e the Chinese just released.

<shrug> I support things being hackable, dumpable, flashable, whatever. I also support piracy. But those two aren’t as interlinked as you want them to be.
Hacking because it’s ownership. Do what you want with the things that you own. Piracy because fuck 'em. That’s what happens when you make everything digital - it becomes much, much easier to acquire for free.
I’d hazard a guess and say it all stems from advancements in tech. There was a need to get the most out of something because of limited resources. Now that everyone’s got some fairly serious hardware (yes, even the cheap shit), there’s rarely that urge to optimize.
Rather than optimize each new technology as it comes along and gets adopted, it seems as though the mantra is “fuck it, add it to the pile”. And it snowballs. As developers feel the need to optimize less, the lessons get passed down to the next generation, and so on.
So we’re left with apps/end-user stuff that appear to have been on the opposite of a diet.
Misleading title; SMM’s “final” level creator came right out and said it was a trolling joke they let go a little too far. And also acknowledged the person who completed the non-troll “final” SMM level.
