Did something change? It was hacked a few years ago with that collateral damage thing, but nothing came of it, even though it was confirmed that piracy was possible.

The Xbox hacker scene is lively. Xbox 360 hackers are common and there're even books to guide you on how to hack your 360 and modify it. There are many things you can do with a hacked Xbox: you can play pirated games from a USB drive, run costume apps, mods, modify UI, automate things like library sorting, emulate PS1, N64, SNES, Genesis, and play original Xbox titles, run games from every region, and much more.

There was a group of hackers that found development kit Xbox machines in a dump near a MS HQ building and could log in to dev servers of an unreleased Halo game. They also infiltrated MS buildings in person to steal dev kits and hacked PCs of many studios to steal source code and early builds of games. Eventually a member became an FBI informant and screwed the rest of the members over.
//More info
"Xbox Underground was an international hacker group that gained notoriety for breaching the networks of Microsoft and its partners between 2011 and 2013. The group, which included members from the U.S., Canada, and Australia, stole an estimated $100 million in intellectual property.

They accessed source code and technical specs for the then-unreleased "Durango" (Xbox One) console and even built a functional prototype using stolen parts.

They breached companies like Activision, Epic Games, and Valve, stealing pre-release builds of titles like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3.

The group compromised Zombie Studios, accidentally obtaining sensitive Apache helicopter simulation software developed for the U.S. Army.

Members used stolen credentials to bypass security at Microsoft’s Redmond headquarters to physically steal development kits.

The FBI eventually dismantled the group after an informant provided internal communications."

In summary, hacking an Xbox machine gives you freedom to do whatever you like with the machine.
It's maybe unappealing to most users, but the tech savy love it.
