This is only for the FRC Firmware in as far as I am aware.
There is also a signed mode built into the CAN signal so that any arbitrary device cannot inject motor control signals only "trusted" devices.

Which this ruling DID NOT forbid, it merely said we can't use the the PID on the Jag's PID. We can still use them to put sensors onto the CAN bus and reduce wiring complexity.
For reference, I strongly hope they change this rule.
