Thats what we did in case of existing factory downgrade....
Even if we get an extract like this, the expectation is that the extracted file will be a 'factory' style image, this means that it will still only work on people who have NOT updated to 5.8.8 and 5.8.9.


To clarify, the "protection" amazon has added appears to get applied when you install 5.8.8 and 5.8.9 from the customer images available on their website.

The devices shipping with 5.8.9.0.1 have the software installed on the factory. which means it does not install a customer style firmware, and it does not get the protections installed.
