When companies such as Sony take a loss at selling hardware to make up for it by selling millions of software titles, they are entitled to go through any means neccessary to get what is rightfully theirs.

The only way around this so-called "mod" fad is with mod chips *only*. If you have a 500X PSX model and older, and have connected it with a game-enhancer instead, then you can play any game out there even with the copy protection. Also, there is a way around the copy protection of having it detecting your mod chip and that is by implementing a switch. When you boot up the CD, just turn off the mod chip, and then after it bypasses the copy protection, turn it back on and it is utilizing the mod chip once again.
The switch is easily done, but nothing beats a simple game-enhancer. No soldering, just plug it in and it works flawlessly. Nothing can beat that!
