Hacker group releases Xbox mod details

A group of XBox hackers called Free-X, claim to have now released details about their Xbox security exploits. They are the same group that were responsible for the attempt to extort a signed Linux boot loader for the console.

This kind of piracy is very worrying for the console, since it would allow pirates to create copies of Xbox discs using simple CD and DVD burning equipment, which run on completely unmodified consoles in exactly the same way that original games do.
