It all looks so complex but it can all be defeated... Not
very new, basically it's the concept of Trusted Computing... but it seems that Apple is basically killing themselves by moving to a TC model, since it becomes a much more restrictive environment. Users and developers are going to move to more "open" platforms like Windows and Linux. It'll be quite difficult to debug programs, especially with all their code obfuscated. Not to mention that the idea of automated code obfuscation has been around since polymorphic virii and the like.
Obfuscation can be defeated by deobfuscators, most of which work quite well given the design of the obfuscatory pattern. Remember that us Reversers will always find a way around it, be it through software or hardware
It's just that RCE'ers who work on Macs are rare.
