Conspiracy: OEM's provide the key to unlock their ECU

My grand conspiracy is that OEM's know people mod their cars, and have been (especially in BMW's case) feeding people the keys to decrypt their ecu's to allow tuning. They even allow/encourage specific mods on their cars and use the general population as test mules for improvements/modifications later on down the pipeline.

I'd even go as far to say that newer car's power creep (we have 1000hp Corvettes!) are finally a little hedge to fight back against tuners by offering a "complete" package.
