Oh, I see! They're "protecting" Amiga.
It all makes sense now!

On the IContain "about us" page it has this Orwellian statement:

http://icontainprotects.com/icontain/
"Products implementing this technology are location aware and can be controlled remotely. When an account is in default or an item is deemed stolen the product can be located for quick retrieval or authorities can be notified in cases of theft. Also if an account is in default for lack of payment our technology will disable the electronics or electrical device."

I've been looking for a phone/computer/etc. that can be remotely controlled by a Chinese company! Thanks, IContain!

I propose Amiga branded Electronic Smokeless Squirels!
 
The cool thing is that they could look like boing ball and only emit a "harmless" vapor.

With Amiga licensing, the possibilities are endless!
It's almost like the 1980s all over again, but crappy.
