    Nintendo can’t get emulators that actually are for the primary purpose of bypassing their restrictions (even if doing so on legitimately purchased games is perfectly legal) shut down, and this company thinks they can close a fucking reader because it’s possible some people might use it with pirated copies of their IP?🤣

      They can and they will because the dev team caved.

      In regards to the forks though. We’ll see if they get a computer literate judge or not.

        Harassing specific devs may mean those devs don’t push back, but being open source means anyone else hosting it can trivially counter claim bullshit DMCA nonsense.

        It doesn’t take any tech literacy. There’s no infringement and precedent out the ass that things far closer to the line are legal. There’s no need for a novel interpretation of anything. The project doesn’t contain their IP.

          With tech literate I mean how easy they are at convincing what they do is soujd and how evil the devs are.

          A sane person would probably call out the bs.
