Please don’t integrate with steam dick
It doesn’t. Encryption keys are not code and are not copyrightable. Distributing them is also not illegal. The word “proprietary” here is meaningless at best and dishonest at worst.
Of course actually using that key to circumvent drm may be illegal, but I’m no lawyer. Send like that would be on Dolphin’s users anyway.
Food for thought: if Nintendo genuinely thought they had a good legal argument against Dolphin, why wouldn’t they just send them a cease and desist directly instead of just getting them kicked off Steam?
If they’re ideologically consistent then they’d argue that taxation is theft. And since they seem to think that slavery is wrong purely because the individual is being deprived of pay, then they’d probably say that taxation is morally equivalent to slavery as well.
They’re wrong, but they’d probably say that.
