That is cruel and unfair to people following the rules. Anyways, as far as crypto world is concerned, the expectation of anything fair is itself unfair 
What rules are you referring to? No one is breaking any rule or law or anything really. This thread is a bad assumption about things 99.9% of the users here know zilch about.
Bottom line, there owuld be huge headlines if someone had a Ethereum asic... best case scenario there are FPGAs out there but ETH and its like will be GPU coins until the day Homestead is implemented to deprecate it.
