Uhh… what do you think the notice is telling you…? That’s it’s not a legal copy. Now you can’t claim you didn’t know… this is literally a legally accepted measure to remove that entire defense that you didn’t know. It’s hilarious you comprehend that, but don’t see how this notifies you of it being illegal! It’s along the same veins of reselling a book without its cover and the notice telling you. Of course it’s legal and accepted to remove your ignorance defense. Ignorance has never been a defense and this would be no different.

And yeah people have been arrested for those before, of course I haven’t personally seen it. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.

Doesn’t matter how you acquired the key, it’s still a pirated copy.

Do you think buying a stolen car or phone changes that it’s still stolen? Plenty of places also have laws against buying or keeping knowingly stolen items. So even just being informed and you continuing to keep it can now be used against you as well.

Lmfao you know who doesn’t leave a conversation after saying they were going to? Someone who never meant to have a discussion in good faith. I’ll save you the trouble and just block the troll instead.

Ah yes, that would be because it doesn’t exist and you clearly missed the original point of my comment!

Lmfao.

I’m I’m wrong I would love to see the supporting evidence so I don’t mislead people in the future, but I also know you’re full of shit. So feel free to block me, don’t care.

A notice is court admissible, this is a notice, not an agreement or an acknowledgement, sorry. Has nothing to do with admissibility, Would love to see your homework that disproves this. But it’s moot since it’s not for them to admit as we’ve established already quite clearly.

schmidtster, to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

What precedent? You keep claiming it’s related to an EULA, which is wholefully misplaced and have provided no evidence to support this.

There is plenty of precedence that merely a sign or other notice is admissible in court, but again, this has nothing to do with admissibility, it is just so you can’t claim you didn’t know you used a pirated cdkey. Which has precedence has a defence, so they have an already precedented way of dealing with it.

I’m sorry you missed my clear joke in my parent comment, but good to know pointing out your folly is “losing my cool” lmfao.

schmidtster, to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

You don’t even need to acknowledge the thing, it could just be a splash screen.

Again, nothing to do with “non-defensible” or anything related to a Eula. It’s merely a recognition the key is pirated to remove your defenses if a lawsuit happens.

Clearly the joke of my parent comment sailed way over your head. But hey mansplain things incorrectly for the rest of class.

schmidtster, to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

Do you really think this is a contract or agreement of legal enforceability? Holy hell.

If they actually used this for that reason it would be to merely remove your defense of saying you didn’t know you bought a pirated copy. They don’t even need you to agree to it, a splash screen would be enough.

schmidtster, (edited ) to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

And you said you acknowledged it was pirated, doesn’t matter where you got it from……

schmidtster, to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

Can’t say you didn’t know the key was pirated when you bought it off kijiji if there’s this warning.

It removes a potential defence, it’s not for them to admit any evidence, it’s to destroy your rebuttals.

If those games had demos would you still pirate the full game to only play a small portion?

schmidtster, to piracy in Love devs' attitude towards piracy, TruePianos v1.9.8 (audio VSTi plugin)

Too bad they don’t see the hypocrisy of them doing the same with tax loopholes.

There will also be people who abuse it for nefarious means as well. Even if purchasing is easy.

They of course use these 2% to justify vilifying the rest though.

schmidtster, to asklemmy in Which items/products were you once able to get from local shops on a whim that you now more or less have to order online?

Marks or any cobbler will have those.

So glad we still have a few of those kicking around in our city, but they just can’t compete unfortunately.

I try supporting local, but I’m not spending 25% more just to do that.
