Seriously what is this? Nintendo argues that by instructing users how to extract the prod.keys from their own switch the yuzu developers are essencially infringing on the DMCA.

So what? Now you can’t even freely use your own property anymore because it goes against the design intentions of some big company that just want’s to milk their users?

Nintendo goes directly after this argument in its lawsuit, arguing that buying a Switch game only means you “have Nintendo’s authorization to play that single copy on an unmodified Nintendo Switch console.”

    a) 💖

    b) I’m not entirely sure how quotes should work. I imagine that if you quote such licensed text immediately after, it’s quite obvious who you’re quoting. But if you quote it on some blog somewhere out in the interwebs, proper attribution must be given.
    Newspapers do have to attribute whatever they quote (and if they’re respectable, they will) because they’re trying to earn money with it, but beyond that… no idea. I’m not a lawyer.
    Good question though
