Speaking of not like the 3ds, what’s the technical reason why the only solution so far has been rcm? Is a permanent boot back a dream on switch?
I'm curious about the network this switch is connected to, do they have nintendo servers blocked? Did they connect to an AP that doesn't have internet access to create an elaborate troll? or are they really banned. Seeing as it's one person I think it's some sort of hoax. Going to test and see what codes I get when blocking and connecting to an AP without internet access.
As far as i understand, RCM is something that lets you run completely random or unsigned code on the system but everytime you switch the system off, the memory is reset or something like that and since the "CFW" is running from the system's memory...
Also you have to realize that the Switch scene is still in it's very early infancy. Atmosphere isn't even fully released yet and that's the basis for all the other starter packs we see around like ReiNX and RajNX. I'm sure that, eventually, a more permanent solution will be found, at least for the old systems, not too sure about the Mariko versions. It kind of reminds me of the PSP, early CFW were the same, you had to constantly re flash the system everytime you turned it off
Not exactly, RCM itself is just some sort of recovery mode the tegra chip has by design, it´s meant for support reasons if there´s something wrong with the system (the chip itself is used for many more systems then just the Nintendo Switch) and you can´t boot the OS anymore.
We use a weakness/exploit in the chip while in RCM to inject some patches (->payload) to the OS so we can do what we do.
There is still RCM in the new ipatched Switches but (at least atm) you can´t use the exploit anymore to inject the payload

Dear ninty here are the non leaked exploits for deja vu lots of love ktemkin. I do wonder if ninty have the fixs for the non disclosed vulns......
Leniency? They haven't been lenient at all on the Switch. By now they must have banned a ton of Certs
So what you're saying is that the PC I have dedicated to getting as much off of CDN as possible for the last few days might have been a good idea??
Your pc is fine. The cert you're using on the other hand...
Yeah I figured that much when the app asked for NOTHING from my device... As long as I get the stuff I want (and a lot of it I already bought!) I'm not too concerned that the public cert will get banned. Nor do I think that'll stop things for very long haha.
Also, always use a condom... errr VPN

It wont. The public cert that people are using right now is not the first one.
Compared to the steps it took to get 3DS working (good luck figuring out what currently works if you don't follow every development for a few weeks!) I'm just fine with the 10 seconds it takes to plug my phone into my console to get it to run CFW. Imagine if you had to reflash a boot file and changing setting or something every time you turned the thing on... a few second USB bootstrap is fine with me!
They're lenient in not completely killing the tls cert authorization which is what they are doing with the follow-up superbans to CDNSP. But there's no reason for them to not just outright tls revoke on a ban for piracy, in my personal opinion.
No? The certificate can experience two degrees of bans: a dauth failure and a complete removal of tls permissions, without tls you lose access permanently. The former is a smaller form of the latter, the latter removes all authorization access to the CDN. It would only and does only effect certs that they deem necessary for such bans.
They are currently doing it, these superbans, to keep killing the CDNSP certificates, seemingly believing that people will stop being stupid enough to keep providing them. But since it doesn't seem like the depth of stupidity has been reached, at some point they will simply change how bans work outright.
If (and really more of a when, seeing as they are not letting freeshop slide anymore) they decide to, they can revoke any and all tls certificates along with the dauth bans.
The Switch, unlike the 3DS, can be completely stopped from ever accessing Nintendo's networks and their methods for stopping FreeShop are far more thorough/capable than they are on 3DS. If they are shutting down 3DS FreeShop, there's zero reason to expect them to not take a gun to CDNSP when they get tired of dealing with individual certificate bans.
If you get banned for piracy, there's no real reason for them to still be lenient and they can just revoke the entire tls cert. And if they do, the cert count available for CDNSP instantly becomes zero. The CDN already can and does auto-ban dauth on bad-calls and piracy pulls, they can extend this to burning the tls-cert outright.

Removing TLS permissions really wouldn't do much since people would just get a different cert. Now i have no idea where these public certs come from but that's how it is. Hell the current public cert people use with CDNSP isn't the first one. And even if they do permanently kill CDNSP, people can still get .NSP and .XCI files elsewhere so it really wont deter people all THAT much to be perfectly honest
They come from Switch donors dumps (from dauth banned switches). If they outright revoke all tls-certs for bans, there would be no more donor certs.
CDNSP has burned through several certs because Nintendo is banning their tls-cert, and then someone else from that group of chuckleheads donates a new cert. It lasts for a while then it gets banned. This is finite. As I said, by all indication, Nintendo did not expect people to willfully burn their own tls-certs but they're going to stop playing softball with their bans eventually.
When they get tired of dealing with this and just cut it off outright, then we'll be seeing a situation where piracy ban = tls-cert removal = dead CDNSP.
