Worth noting that the author's other book in a similar vein, "Hacking the Xbox", was made freely available by No Starch Press in a kind of protest after Aaron Seartz' death: https://www.nostarch.com/xboxfree

I still remember an article of his I read about hacking the Xbox. Made me realize that security is ultimately physical. If you can gain physical access to the secret (such as a key obscured in Xbox hardware) then the secret is compromised.
