The enable/disable works the same way as the IFI system. You do not have to have any code to use it. You do have access to the enable/disable state in the code, but if you set an output in the code while disabled, it does not get passed on. Unlike the IFI system, the switch is provided.

What specifically in the video made you think it was easily bypassed?
