I know that all firmware updates to the Zune have to be signed by Microsoft but what if you fake signed, it has been done before.(LEGAL DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT CONDONE AND DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FAKE A SIGNATURE) As the whole design to allow firmware updates, as a hacked OS could sneak in this way. Is this possible?
-I am not stating this as it will ever happen, but more of a hypothetical question.-
