[QUOTE="raging_chaos, post: 9285842, member: 541723"] They are under trial for money laundering mostly. They aren't in trouble for making the hardware, they are in trouble for how they handled the money earned from said hardware. One example is falsely labeling flash cards as 'SD Card adapters' worth .20 cents. This isn't exclusive to just TX, ever bought anything off eBay or Amazon and had the item come from China? Well they also did the same type of false declaration on whatever it was you bought in order to not have to pay customs import tax. At the end of the day they cheated Uncle Sam, and many Chinese businesses operate this way. The FBI isn't going to get involved unless it involves money and trail they can follow. Atmos makes no money but that doesn't mean they aren't on Nintendo's radar, the FBI just doesn't care or have enough to act on. As far as never getting updates, as has been said before good luck getting their programmers extradited out of China. Their discord is active with comments of progress, and lets not forget their source code being 'leaked'. None of these CFW's are custom firmware replacements that have been written 100% from the ground up without using any modified Nintendo code, they are firmware mods that for some reason continue to be mislabeled as CFW. Let's not fool ourselves here into thinking any user/software mod is better than the other. That homebrew excuse people keep hiding behind isn't a valid one, Nintendo isn't making any licensing money for that software to be on their platform. Let's not forget the second you run an emulator it stops being "just about homebrew" and you are directly costing Nintendo money on any game that is or might be sold on the eshop. [/QUOTE]
