It's just normal that increasingly more powerful technology becomes 
generic so that it can be used in many more products so that it can sell 
more so that it can pay for its own development and cut down on the 
production costs... eventually we put supercomputers inside 
chequebook-sized boxes and call them « telephones ».

The best you can do is write a distributed-computing virus that detects 
any such ASIC and hook it on some math problem such as trying to crack 
exterrestrial prime numbers and stuff... ;)
