It's not the modchip that is illegal (or at least not everywhere) but the Evolution X dashboard uses parts of Microsoft's original copyrighted source code and it was compiled with an illegal/stolen xdk. Luckily there are other site that at least let you discuss such software (try hxxp://www.xbox-scene.com you'l find your answer) as long as you don't request links to the software. That I understand.
Speeding is against the law, but we can talk about it here without a problem as long we don't encourage people to do it. We can even ask people how to make our cars go even faster. When it comes to Evolution X however it suddenly does become a problem.
Isn't that a bit odd?
Besides, there are threads here where people ask for cracks. Isn't that what you should worry about?
Maybe the rules are a tat to much here. Even the newsbot can't obey them.
