You make it sound like catching a cold, or an infection.
We know at some point they will probably decide to remove our "bridge" code during updates. They could even lock down serial. It is just a question of "when". That FCC ruling requiring lockdown of the radios inside devices is having unintended harmful consequences all over the industry, because the easiest way to comply is to just lock down the entire device, which is the battle we fight now DESPITE promoting NOT messing with radio settings and NOT tethering 3G (i.e. we are playing nice). Amazon is being lazy by locking us out this way, rather than just locking the radio hardware stay within FCC guidelines (especially in new hardware like the Oasis).
