Wow, after doing all that research on videogame piracy a few weeks ago for my report, I was under the impression that they couldn't shut down mod chip distributors. They have legal applications in importing and playing your own backups, and although maybe 0.00001% of mod chip owners use them for legal purposes, the mod chips themselves were supposedly not technically illegal. Good to see this happening though, since they should be illegal.
