I have been thinking, the way to kraken open the newest consoles would be to look for possible NSA Backdoors.
It has been revealed that both the NSA and GCHQ have been spyin' on XBL and PSN. The weaknesses found in the PS3 console encryption and now the PSN network encryption don't seem to be an accident now but perhaps an intentional backdoor for the NSA. It be also been revealed that the NSA has been weakenin' encryption on many devices.
If someone were to hack the Xbox One and PS4, this be what I would start to look for. Their way in could be our way in. The NSA be in fact extremely useful in this case.
