Good news - fingers crossed it will be staying that way.

For anyone who can’t get the license.dat - I’ve tested mine out tonight with the boot.dat but without the license file on the card. Obviously you cannot boot SXOS but you can still boot payloads and I’ve had Atmosphere running using the guide here https://gbatemp.net/threads/running-atmosphere-on-erista-patched-sx-core-switch.574083/

Not sure about Mariko/Lite compatibility but it works on my V1

Who knows what will happen yet, just biding my time. In the absolute worst case scenario patched V1 consoles with the SX core can still load Hekate/Atmosphere without an up to date copy of SX OS or the license, and fingers crossed those tools will be updated for V2/lite soon

I wouldn't be surprised to eventually see clones of the chips popping up that will allow booting any payload not just signed SXOS

In general it looks like they are done for with GaryOPA in jail, I wouldn't be surprise if it last long, going to be suck for people that have SX OS, as there won't be any newer firmware support.
Yea it's too early to tell what will happen. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

How are you guys checking if the activation site is up or down? I just fixed my girlfriend's Switch and had an SX Pro waiting to use for her Switch. I planned on activating it tonight, so if someone can either tell me if the site is up or down or how to check I'd be very grateful. Thanks!
