if you have an unauthorized system modification for your Wii the new update can possibly "brick" your Wii...

The new features are great but make sure if you're a modder that you don't update your Wii right now

I thought this update was supposed to do that, yet I've read it did not exactly do that. Of course, mentioning this to those with MOD chips keeps them from getting the update. I wouldn't even advertise that. Then again, I wonder just how it works, I know MS tried kicking people off from live who had heir systems modified, yet I read people had a work-around.

Illegally putting a MOD chip that allows people to play pirated games, therefor not supporting the makers of said games. Sad really, since if game developers get the money then they make better games.

That's good for people who don't mod their consoles. It stops people from cheating online.

I think the Wii update also stops freeloader from working. For those that don't know, Free loader is a disc thing that allows you to play imported games.

No one including nintendo should be able to tell you what you do with your wii. You purchased it so it belongs to you.

That's true, and no one said Nintendo was forcing the update on anyone. Also, it's not that having a MOD chip is illegal, but what most people do with it, still there is no reason why Nintendo should support their use. See, no one is forcing anything on anyone.
