Yes, the spec says that it can be turned off. At that point you
can run anything that doesn't need any of the protected data or

I meant to say, another example of a believed one-way function that is
guaranteed to be able to produce any output is one based on the
difficulty of discrete log:
f:(x) = g^x mod p
is bijective if the domain and range is 1..p-1, but finding preimages
is the discrete log problem. Of course this
