We're heading towards the balkanization of all digital content, DRM is the method they will use to enforce their rule.
Piracy isn't just moral at this stage, you're obligated to participate as a means to resist.
Despite not pirating PC games due to not wanting to risk viruses I am very invested in the cracking scene, since they lead to positive outcomes of some companies removing DRM earlier if a crack comes out. Used to be they'd just be left in indefinitely. Thank you pirates.
Piracy against big corporations? Sure, but indie devs? That's gonna hurt them far more and they usually haven't done anything to uustify it
