Actually I believe it helps. I've seen 3-4 cases where a gang of copycats
winds up in a shop asking for a specific chip (that was erased or
remarked). They are always sent on their way in honest places, even if you
can tell immediately what the chip is from the osc pinout etc. Let's say
it slows them down. It won't stop the real bastards who are backed by a
factory of course.
