Would that cover tutorials and videos that provide links to tools used to facilitate homebrew only, or any video that even remotely mentions modding without even providing instructions? I can understand the former, but the latter would be a stretch.
latter would be a stretch indeed, especislly if nobody really loses any money

Are you literally an idiot ?
Tubehax isn't altering hardware or software. It isn't homebrew. Redirecting DNS isn't illegal.
There literally isn't a single line in the EULA wich tells you that you can't redirect DNS.
no but anything basically related to homebrew, which includes tubehax, would be considered circumventing an encryption. which also by the way breaks such eula

and d even like to further point out, even if your definition of it isnt homebrew, that it would still be considered third party. which, also breaks eula.

But would you even need to redirect or circumvent DNS if you aren't going online? How would you get the update, beside using a disc?
The point is that it isn't homebrew. It isn't altering the software or hardware. It isn't breaking the EULA and redirecting DNS isn't illegal and not updating isn't illegal 2 so Nintendo have no legal grounds whatsoever to take down video's like that. It's as simple as that.

Hmmm, maybe a major loophole to this is to buy a system from people on craigslist. Then, you'll technically never have to agree to any terms......as long as they don't wipe the info.

if by your definiton it isnt, then its an exploit in its security, which breaks the eula because you agree to not circumvent any encryption

First off it's not an exploit. DNS redirecting isn't an exploit
Secondly it isn't breaking the EULA in any way whatsoever so stop bringing that up when i gave you enough facts already stating that it doesn't break the EULA.
Jezus you're annoying, if you want to prove a point then please do provide some new facts i can debunk for you ;)

Pretty trippy stuff.

Maybe that's why the EULA is written like it is--so it can be interpreted any way Nintendo wants, for whatever intent or purpose.

actually, redirecting to a third party server would be considered circumventing security, and you havent stated any facts actually.

and the reason i keep saying eula is because its the reason nintendo has the right to take the vids down

and its kinda hard to argue if you refuse to look at the document i presented.

NO IT ISN'T. Please provide me a line in the EULA that says redirecting DNS is illegal ??? You can't because it isn't so stop bringing that up over and over again when you've been proven wrong countless times already !!! Stop being annoying and bring some new facts to the table instead of acting like a whining brat that doesn't take no for an answer.

redirecting dns to run the homebrew launcher, anthird party software (the homebrew apps)

THATS the part im saying is the violation

and YOUR the one who is being proven wrong, because you refuse to read the damn thing, and accept that tubehax is unsigned code.

REDIRECTING DNS ISN'T CIRCUMVENTING SECURITY. Secondly it's called a server !!!!! ( wich isn't a homebrew app). Finally that server isn't running on the system itself so EULA rules don't apply since those rules only apply to the system

My channel is only legit console caps so this is hilarious. If Google is paying for ads people shouldn't be able to monitize on that.

IT ISN'T USED TO RUN AN EXPLOIT. it's used to stay on the same firmware you idiot
the dns is used to prevent updates, which by the way, you dont have to agree to anyway.
tubehax redirects dns to use homebrew on their youtube app.

now because it gives the ability for homebrew, its violating the eula. this of course is why they can take them down

- Tubehax isn't homebrew
- redirecting DNS isn't illegal
- Not updating isn't illegal
- Tubehax is a server and not homebrew
- the server isn't running on the system itself so EULA doesn't apply to tubehax
- DNS redirecting isn't circumventing security
-YouTube app itself is an entry point
