Just a personal rant here, but I give it as my opinion that simply possessing a mod chip should never be an offense, criminal or civil. Selling such chips (under the terms of the DMCA) could be a civil offense but should never be criminal. Imagine if every home had a locked room that you owned but were never allowed to enter and the key was illegal to obtain. What ridiculousness. I believe that if you can find a mod chip, it won't inhibit the playing of signed games because the chip can be removed. Unfortunately, I believe the number of chip sellers is very few right now.
