I can't tell you how much I enjoyed and learned from your course on IOT hacking (that I found through the matt brown security channel) - super thorough and really hands on and pretty technical! Great to see the chip off extraction here too. Big thank you for sharing all your expertise. One thing I would note is that when you made your excellent course the firmware extraction (.bin) back then differed to a new unit I used, I think they must have seen the device as a target and changed a lot of the firmware to make it a lot less interesting. Didn't make a difference to the learning apart from there was no squashfs in the .bin. But it was all brilliant especially the hardware hacks. Keep producing!

100% - keep them coming. Perhaps try some catchy titles to grab attention on specific areas of interest. A bit like Matt browns.

Great vid. Btw, it's Kapton not Clapton. More generic - polymide film tape.

Hi, I have an microchip PIC18F6520, can I use the same procedure to extract the firmware or does it differ?

I can used it for extract a cpu firmware of LG air conditioner or the close source mcu.

Hey! What about using the pcbites pogo probes directly on the chip pins? I have 6 probes and I was wondering if I could avoid the other steps with that, I prefer to not desolder parts

You literally have only one video and no profile description of your previous course. I think this is a fake YouTube channel..
