Israelis can pretty much hack any new system that comes out on the market. For example, just hours after the new iPhone was recently released, there was already a hack to be able to pout Hebrew on it and to use it in Israel. The same with the previous model - just hours after it was released, it was already usable in Israel due to an Israeli hack.
A friend was just telling me about a system he was looking at buying. The system was limited, but he was told that for only an extra 200 NIS he could buy a "chip" that someone created to hack the system and this would give him all the additional features, instead of buying them separately.
He asked the supplier if that was legal - if he buys it would it be under warranty, would some authority come chasing after him, etc.
The supplier responded that originally it was not legal, but they found a way around that (a loophole in the law?) and now the chip is legal.
They even hacked the law to get the hack on the system recognized! I told my friend that they made a "chip" for the law about the chip.
