It's impossible, pretty much by definition. You need explicit cooperation from the console manufacturers to keep homebrew and piracy completely separate. Sony tried that, then decided to throw it all away for stupid reasons.

encourage them to try it themselves. I loved the exploit process and learned a ton from the write-ups people made. It was the reason I learned about homebrew and started getting me into the hardware side as well. fi God writing things on twitter in breaks like this feels stupid.
That was a joke and I thought the emoji made it clear. Also we never, ever "toyed with the idea of locking down code execution to only approved apps" on HBC. That is patent nonsense. The only thing HBC ever rejected were broken ELF files.

And the only reason why HBC itself and the installer had reverse-DRM was because a bunch of unscrupulous assholes were trying to sell it and we needed to ensure every end-user saw the "this is not for sale" screen at least once without inconveniencing them in normal usage.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Hm, I could have sworn I read it either from you on twitter or somewhere on the HackMii blog that it was debated about preventing privacy by only allowing whitelisted apps from the HBC. I'll try and find it if I can. Also totally missed the sarcasm. My bad :P

Here it is: https://hackmii.com/2010/05/of_homebrew_and_antipiracy/ … It does say that it was used as a joke but does mention it as a thing that could have been done if you had made an app store like thing instead of the HBC.
