LoJack is a different animal altogether and CAN NOT be lumped together with mebromi
trojan.
Mebromi is malware. LoJack is not.
LoJack is loaded in an area of extra ROM at the factory and is designed to be there. For
malware to be loaded in ROM at the factory we would have a whole different scenario which
is called the Insider Threat.
Mebromi uses a cludgy method of ROM injection based upon the IceLord proof of concept.
LoJack in no way injects itself into ROM.
You have a *bad* reading and comprehension problem!
