Nintendo files lawsuit against RCM Loader seller, claims piracy is a worsening international problem
Nintendo isn't done trying to take legal action against those trying to let users hack their Nintendo Switch consoles. They've filed yet another lawsuit recently against defendant Le Hoang Minh, who has been accused of selling devices that allow for the "circumvention of a technological protection measure that controls access to a copyrighted work and trafficking in devices intended to circumvent technological protection measures". Minh has, according to the legal documents, previously sold "jailbreak device" RCM Loader through Amazon, to which Nintendo issued a DMCA notice. The seller then filed a counter claim against Nintendo, and continued selling the device. Now, Nintendo is looking to sue for damages--a whopping maximum of $2,500 per violation--and to prevent Minh from being able to sell such products ever again.
Nintendo's lawyers claim that piracy has become a "serious, worsening international problem", to which the company has focused on taking action against, as seen in the numerous lawsuits and legal battles we've seen crop up in the past year. In May, Nintendo went after Tom Dilts Jr., owner of Uberchips, who was a reseller of SX OS and other Team Xecuter products. Team Xecuter themselves also ran into legal issues, with the FBI arresting two of their members last month.
