And a PS4 BluRay exploit has just been released, so you can crack the whole thing by burning a BluRay (up to a certain software version).
Comment on Sony is raising all PS5 console prices in the US by $50, starting tomorrow

Is there a cfw yet or other homebrew? Or we just at the start and they’ve just found the door in so far?

There isn’t a CFW for PS4. But what we have is GoldHEN (which enables us to run decrypted games, also called fPKG’s) and various methods to run GoldHEN.
Up to firmware 9.00 (I believe) there is a browser exploit to run it, up to 11.00 you can also hack the console via PPP (pppwn) and up to 12.02 GoldHEN can be loaded with a BluRay you have burned before.
So you basically start the system and put it in a state where it accepts unsigned code. It’s very similar to PS3HEN. There’s also a method of hacking the console with some obscure Japanese games and one with a PS2 game.
The channel MODDED WARFARE always reports on those methods and makes tutorials, highly recommended.

I once traded someone my PS3 for his PS4.
I traded up, and he had two PS4s and no PS3 and he wanted one of each. It was a win-win.
