Oh dear!
Here we go again.
A thread entitled, "read this before you flash firmware", is certainly an eye catcher jaliy.
However, the substance of the article, whilst an interesting hypothesis, would appear to be pure speculation on your part as you do not seem able, or willing, to provide the links to the material that brought you to this conclusion which you are presenting as hard fact.
Whilst I appreciate that you have given considerable thought to ways that Samsung, or indeed any other manufacturer, could possibly detect unauthorised firmware it is, unless you can prove otherwise, just pure speculation and nothing more.
