@ppb1701 @thegamerwebsite @steam In fairness, Nintendo has been consistent with this kind of thing. It takes them a while before they raise the DRM flag, but they always get to it in the end. That said, @BeAware's point is correct. There needs to be a mechanism to protect legacy content because this is happening a lot these days, for various reasons. Maybe there's a way to open up old, rusting IPs before tech advances bury them?
The way I see it change the law or boycott the company using the law but all these complaints about the person merely complying with the existing law by taking down the content as required by law are ridiculous.
