Sometime ago I did read that Ninty could update your console automatically from WiiConnect24 to disable hacks from the system, since then I become a little paranoid about the subject and disable WC24, the problem is that the news channel takes forever to update news when WC24 is disabled, other annoyance is not to know when you recive a new message from your friends (pretty usefull for Metroid Prime 3 vouchers trade)

So it´s really factible that Ninty goes that way? I put WC24 on and just get a update notification... maybe Ninty just want scare us, or they´re waiting we down our guard and then BANG! bye HBC?

I think that if you delete the Nintendo Channel you are going to be fine, I have only off the standby mode, WiiC24 is on..!!

If you pirate, Nintendo will sell our children's organs to zoos for meat, and they'll go into people's houses at night and wreck up the place!

DON'T PIRATE!!

Nintendo added to the TOS if you update to 3.4... if you DO update to 3.4, and have WiiConnect24 on, Nintendo can install system patches to your console without making you agree every time.

I think the first time they start to do this, and someone turns off their console, and it bricks, Nintendo will get sued, and that part of the TOS will be erased, and free replacements all around!
