I am beginning to think that #Nintendo has become a bad influence on gaming. Yes, its games are good, but I am only now realizing this is a company that litigates aggressively on copyright matters, kills off support for its old games so that it can resell them virtually unchanged on new consoles, and expects us to abide by its tedious #EULA or risk bricking our devices. So ask yourselves this: are you playing the game, or is Nintendo playing you?

Huh, so the #Beaterator #EULA by #Timbaland and #Rockstar forbids commercial use for ANYTHING created with Beaterator, even if you do not touch the premade assets.

Guess I will have to create my #game #launcher background #music without my #PSP

Här hemma sitter jag med en #ASUS RT-AX86U Pro och blir besviken över tillverkarens nya #EULA. Efter den nya uppdateringen tar de sig rätten att påtvinga uppdateringar på min #router, stänga av funktioner när de tycker och tar inget ansvar överhuvudtaget.

Varför ska jag fortfarande vara deras kund?

Es geht um den weltgrößten Spielzeughersteller oder mein Versuch, bei #Microsoft und #Copilot nicht ins Polemische abzurutschen. Ich bin offensichtlich gescheitert :-) Aber es gibt ein Blick in mein Bücherregal. Viel Spaß beim Lesen!

I just came across a tool to download+decrypt #windevine content.

Interesting in theory but looks abandoned.

What I find very interesting though is that it comes with a #EULA that summarises to "don't pirate" – presumably to keep the lawyers at bay. The code is licensed under #GPLv3 however.

Little known GPLv3 fact: If the software you received has "further restrictions" placed upon it, it grants you the explicit permission to remove them!

I would like to coin this tactic "#DMCA-condom" ;D
