Comment (by pulkomandy):
Note that there is no actual bricking, the change is reversible by
rewriting the original ID to the EEPROM on the devices. So it is a lot of
panic for not much.
Also, not ALL Arduinos will be affected: they stopped using FTDI chips
years ago and are using an AVR as a serial to USB adapter. And I doubt
real Arduinos are affected (I can't find any official announcement from
them at least). Cheap chinese copies probably are, but you get what you
paid for with those.
