You simply need to click on the "Show details" button. It's the round-cornered rectangle with the words "Show details" in it. This is a common user interface element on many web sites, so learning to recognize such things may come in handy for you in the future. Not that the "(2012 estimate)" doesn't provide a major clue as to when the population was measured. I suppose they could have been clearer, and said "estimate from the year 2012" so you wouldn't get confused whether the population was an actual 3232 or an estimated 2012.

No one is circumventing (literally, "come around," e.g. bypass) anything. That would be the case if the product's firmware were being hacked/modified to not do the entitlement checks.

Instead, this is a straight up duplication of the factory hardware which enables entitlements. It's not getting around the protections, it's opening them in exactly the way they were designed to be opened.
