Honestly, given the composition of the market for 3d-printers (lotsa nerds  ), I think hacks to get around price-gouging on the filament are an eventuality, FRC or no.
Besides, I can't imagine that modifying your own 3d printer is in any way illegal, or that any claims by the company that it is would hold up for a second in court.
