Parent article: A partial ruling in the Vizio GPL suit
The difference in the Vizio case is that it's (supposedly) your hardware that you don't have the ability to write toAccording to the article, the judge ruled: "this does not mean that Vizio must allow users to reinstall the software, modified or otherwise, back onto its smart TVs", so he is apparently not talking about your or my hardware, but only about Vizio's hardware (i.e., before they sell it).
