Hi, I'm thinking in get a switch lite for birthday and I wanna ask if there is some "home brew" or any exploit for him without a mod-chip, if there isn't, is there a possibility in the future some one be capable to jailbreak it? Thanks's

You can't be sued for pointing out an exploit... That would be like you being arrested for pointing at the hole in the side of a bank that someone could possibly climb thru if they wanted to rob the place. XD1. Release the exploit, and get sued by Nintendo.
I said "release the exploit", not just find it. There's guidelines that state you must contact the vendor and let them know to patch the software before it gets made public. There's also a chance that if its reported to Nintendo, they make you sign a waiver which states you can't release the CVE.You can't be sued for pointing out an exploit...

Also, consider that if it has the potential to cause a monetary loss to Nintendo, they will sue for the amount of consoles on that said firmware times the expected loss of sales per console.
Also about the bank, you could easily be sued (at least in the states) if you told everyone that the bank left the back door unlocked.
Either way, it's much more likely that the incentive just isn't there, as the last paragraph state of my post earlier. The same people can just get paid more than enough to buy the entire switch library if they use their time to break into something else instead. My reasoning for this is because it's too easy to anonymously release code to the public.
How could he know if he's from the USYou know that the US isnt the whole World.
You know there's a thing called extradition, y'know. Ever heard of team xecutor?You know that the US isnt the whole World.

And before you point out Team Xecuter
Their charges were fraud related... and because of making profit off of exploiting Nintendo's intellectual property. Not because the exploits exist... They would have never gone to jail if they did this all non-profit.
