So… again… you have no sources other than what you think? Either offer sources that back up your claims or stop making comments that are immediately proven false.
I also did believe that they could because I misread something. That’s on me and has been edited. Next time I would also recommend trying to correct someone by acting like an adult instead of whatever this behavior is. Sorry about the mistake but you really could have addressed that with a very different attitude.
Lastly, the actual issue is a misrepresentation on how much lost revenue Nintendo gained from this man. Piracy is a factor. It is not the driving force.
Why is it weird to be mad at a multibillion dollar corporation for garnishing the wages of a disabled person’s disability benefits, simply because he was providing the means to do what you want with your device? I don’t care what the courts say. It should not be illegal to sell something that allows you to do what you want with your device. Even if that device facilitates piracy. IP isn’t real and shouldn’t exist in the first place.
I actually didn’t know they were directly selling pirated software, I thought it was only about the modding device. However, I’m glad you recognize the extremely excessive nature of the ruling. Do you happen to know why they went after a single individual instead of the whole group?
disability benefits can’t be garnished. i think it’s ok to be mad at people for spreading misinformation even if they themselves are fighting a just cause. lies like this help nobody.
Just to be clear, you’re ok with saddling a disabled person with $14m dollar fine to a multibillion dollar corporation, for the crime of making $300k on a device that allows you to do what you want with your device? It wasn’t specifically meant for piracy, there are several good and legitimate reasons to have full control of your device.
He made far more than that selling the hack. Weird to be mad about him being fined.
Nah, what’s weird is for you to openly lie and make shit up for no reason.
He made $320,000 over a 7 year period.
Source.
The group made far more than that, and of course he would downplay the amount himself to make his portion look less.
They sold millions of copies of a hardware for over $50. The group made mint and there was 3 of them.
So you have no sources other than what you think?
Yeah I’m going to stick with the documents that were shown in legal proceedings, thanks.

The group made millions.

They can’t garnish disability benefits, they can only garnish wages.
Ok, that doesn’t make it better though.

What does the person being disabled have to do with anything?
Because he lives in
the USCanada, where it’s expensive as fuck to just exist as a disabled person.He actually lives in Canada. Your comment still applies overall as it is not feasible to live adequately on disability here but he’s not in the US.
