Hacking Just so you know we haven't hacked it yet but we can already launch custom javascript on the switch

And it is the first step to hack it
It is done buy using a local / private dns to acess whatever pages

This is really nothing special... stop reposting it.
Basically every browser has JavaScript... it's not an exploit, it's a feature of a browser.

I'm fairly certain you've posted this before

Yes but a lot of exploit can be done using javascript that's why i said it isn't hacked but it is the first step
it is just to avoid reposting it every time someone want a link of it

That's not really true. Can you give me any example?

Well you could get root remote control on computers using javascript until things get patched on web browser, there have already been few zero days using javascript

Just an example here on android

but there are a lot more and the switch is as much vulnerable
really javascript can be used as entrypoints

Totally off topic but how'd you get the dark twitter theme.

Using a chrome / firefox extention called stylish that let you skin every website with your own css / javascript or with other users's
and they have a theme database were you can search and install one for every website

Turn on night mode or something

Well if u are using the built twitter app in windows 10 the dark theme is an option dark theme options are common nowadays, windows 10 gave the option of dark theme ever since their big anniversary update a while ago, but I am digressing....

Think someone's gonna bypass the console activation for purchased games on the account would allow more than a single switch to be used for your purchased games

It looks like the Switch's browser only supports partial features. Based on what and what is not supported, it seems that some care has been made to remove feature unneeded for Wifi logons yet useful for hacking.

The comment goes to the reposting and the lack of any bit of context but ok.

Mr. If you don't want to see how the sausage is made please just don't read and post in these threads before a public exploit is released. This is a work in progress, this is a first step. Heck there is even emulators written in javascript so at the very least, this could be a fallback way to run some libretro cores.

But since you ask for examples, here is a whitepaper about a heap overflow in javascript. https://securityevaluators.com/knowledge/papers/engineeringheapoverflow.pdf (not saying this old exploit is possible in newer browsers, but you asked for an example)

What I mean by this is every thing you have written in this thread is false or irrelevant.
