Damn now why didn't I think of that. I keep my tags in my safe next to my unsafe plastic dry cleaning bags to show the "Mattress Tag Inspecting Police".
I only worry that I might show them the wrong tag for the mattress they are looking at.....Hummmm reminder to self, next time bored and nothing to do put numbers on stored mattress tags with corresponding numbers on mattress.

OEM makers already have the ability to lock their software, and some do (Chrysler and Honda for example) while others continue to allow access (Chevy and Harley for example).
There's a few different sides to this coin, and one of them is the fact that there isn't a lot of room for divergence in a modern engine calibration. OEM's and their factory tunes have squeezed every last ounce of fuel economy and performance from these engines; the only "slop" left in the tune is intentional in order to allow operation in any environment worldwide (hot, cold... high, low... humid, arid... etc). In other words, there is very little performance to be gained by re-calibrating a modern stock engine.
Locking the software is silly IMO. OEM's are concerned about people mucking with it and damaging their vehicles... but it's extremely easy to know if software has been altered; and if so, the OEM would have every right and reason in the world to deny warranty and service. So why lock it up in the first place and make yourself into a perceived unfriendly-to-the-customer company.
Some of you guys may be a little unbalanced. I'm glad I'm normal.
