uhh… Dolphin uses the Wii key, that’s what they did wrong… each one has done an illegal activity that has lead to them being pursued.
Its really not a hard concept to try and grasp here, sorry.
Nothing about my previous comment is “factually” incorrect. Which specific part do you think I was wrong about, and provide a source to disclaim it if you want to try and make a point.
A lot of those apps are actual “donations” as well, not a patreon with locked emulator content…. If you can’t comprehend the differences of what’s being done, why the fuck are you discussing?
GPL has nothing to with donations… that’s what makes the emulator defense invalid for copyright, you’re only protected for personal use. Can you please stop conflating these very simple things……?
Then why hasn't Nintendo fallowed through and killed Dolphin yet? If it's illegal, then why haven't they continued trying to sue Dolphin?
Because they are fighting it instead of rolling over like Yuzu….?
Why are we going back over the same shit again? If you don’t have anything more to try and defend Yuzu who fucked up, are we done…?
Again, factually wrong. Dolphin removed itself off the steam store to satisfy Nintendo, however it's still on the Google play store and Apple app store and actively developed so why doesn't Nintendo keep coming?
Also, Churches are non-profit, KDE Community are non-profit, Gnome is non-profit, FSF is non-profit, and so on. All of which collect donations. What makes an emulator start-up company any different in this regard?
…. Steam asked Nintendo if it was okay, and they cited the Wii key and said no, so Steam delisted it. Dolphin did nothing, and there was no DMCA claim either.
Don’t claim I’m false and spout a wrong one yourself lol.
Are you going to address the main point or are you just going to continue to prattle on?
Which point have I not addressed? You cause me of prattling, yet we’ve already established you’re moving goal posts and other fallacies. If you can’t defend a single one of your points without shooting your own foot. What are we doing here?
You accuse me of stuff and ignore me pointing out the folley in it.
You seriously are just the alt of the other account aren’t you? Can’t admit a mistake when given unequivocal evidence.
I’m blocking you now.
You haven't addressed :
Or
Go ahead and block me, it just makes it obvious that you're afraid to address the main point.
