Yes, it it true.

It was done to prevent retailers from getting screwed over.

It allows you to play games from other regions.

Well I don't think using free loaders to play Japanese games is really wrong, I mean, you still have to pay money for the game. But if you're downloading Wii games then that is wrong.Chojuto

heard the FBI are cracking down on them really hard

The Freeloader isn't illegal, and neither is playing a game purchased from a different region on your Wii using a Freeloader. If the FBI were cracking down on anything, it'd be other forms of piracy that we aren't allowed to discuss on these forums.

If you purchase the game legally, then of course it is fine.
