    Most consoles, if not all, have electronic fuses that are embedded inside chips that they intentionally blow out with each firmware update that prevent them from rolling back to older versions.

        Yes, it’s a common practice that’s been done right back to PS2 and Xbox360 days.

          Because it’s still their console, even though you paid for it. They are just graciously letting you use it as long as you stay profitable to them.
