> The issue lies with Sony’s PS2 on PS4 emulator — specifically, the just-in-time (JIT) compiler that turns the PS2 code into PS4-ready code on-the-fly while a game is running. Sony gave the compiler privileged access to the system, so the machine treats every bit that comes out of it as legitimate. CTurt managed to hijack the compiler to run games that Sony has not authorized.

Sounds like this emulator runs as root? Why? Wouldn't it at least be run in some kind of sandbox or hypervisor?
