What does bricking a switch mean?

Bricking a Switch means rendering it permanently or severely unusable, essentially turning it into a useless "brick," often due to unauthorized modifications, hacking, or piracy, which triggers anti-tamper measures, but can also happen from hardware issues or failed updates, blocking access to online services or even preventing it from turning on. While a full "brick" stops it from powering on, a "soft brick" or ban limits features like the eShop and online play, though some users equate these severe restrictions to being bricked because they drastically reduce functionality, say Reddit users on GameFAQs and YouTube commentators.
