Google's Kill Swtich
Google has come out with the idea to have a kill switch in Android phones and its mobile counterparts that are using the software and the use of a kill switch is not yet known but ideas of the kill switch reason is up to your idea right now. So far it is a concept that may be realized for many next generation consoles and handheld such as the Nintendo 3DS where Nintendo can just click a button on the computer and the 3DS would be rendered useless and $250 has gone down the drain for what reason is the Kill Switch is installed for, it is for hacking. Many computer games that make use of the Anti Cheat software Punkbuster which would automatically detect hacking programs installed on the computer and then based on the program will then choose to either ban the player from the game and the only way to get back into the game, is to buy the game over again. The second ban, is a GUID Ban which is related to over three games that share a unique ID called the GUID which to get pass that, is to call and repeal a case to Punkbuster and then the last and most difficult one, is a hardware ban. A hardware ban, is where Punkbuster puts small bits of information in the harddrive and you cannot play any game that uses Punkbuster.
