Nowadays the hacks no longer block the auto-updates coming over the wireless, so if they decide to do that, then that portion of the tools would become useless for everyone with a newer model Kindle (who doesn't live with the wireless off).

It's true. Everything has always been one update away from not being able to work anymore. Period. That's why (if you choose to buy DRMed material) it's so important to not wait until it's too late to liberate it. And the
"well there's always the 'other' method" is a false sense of security. Amazon could pretty easily keep one step ahead of the "tools" if they decided to make that a priority of theirs.
