I am woundering if the code protection with PIC's is as secure as promised by Microchip? I am from China, as far as I know, there is a company in Beijin that offers service to help decode the Microchip's PICs. The cost is about US$1000 for each chip! I am afriad my own coding with PICs will be copied by others one day. Do you have any idea on this? Is my worry unnecessary?
