same as hardware hacking on "conferences" - they make you go with them on 2 hour journey of unlocking something, just for you to realize after doing some of it by yourself, that they can just download firmware update from manufacturer and run BINWALK utility on it, it will spit out filesystems, which you just mount, and read from that how is everything configured, how things work, what version of linux kernel they use.... so it is just hacking of YOU. it is advertisement, marketing story.
