Dumb answer to dumb question.yeah the fbi is on the way bucko
Does anybody actually think its NOT illegal to download games you haven't paid for? Its obviously one of those things where the software being used is perfectly legal, even if it's sole purpose is to download free games from Nintendo's servers, but using it for that purpose is illegal. With all that being said, all they can really prove is that we downloaded files from their server. That becomes questionable to me as to how illegal it really is since we did nothing at the point of download to circumvent any security measures on their servers. The files are provided via CDN, we ask for them and it blindly gives them to us. The reason it will blindly provide the files for anything that asks for them is because they are provided as encrypted files that nothing other than their console was suppose to be able to decrypt. They relied on their consoles security to prevent piracy and not caring much about the distribution of the files themselves since they are 'protected' via encryption. BUT the second you use a program like wupinstaller to circumvent all their security measures and install the obtained files to your console, it starts to become a bit more sketchy as to how legal your actions are. I recommend that you send me all of your money weekly and I will offer you protection from the vigilante pirate seekers who only want to destroy you and the console containing their property.Are they both illegal?
Actually wupinstaller doesn't circumvent any security measures. It just triggers a legit installation pointed to the sd card.BUT the second you use a program like wupinstaller to circumvent all their security measures
Sure; in a larger number of countries that you'd think (including Italy, Canada, and Portugal or so I've heard) piracy for personal use (= no uploading) is not a crime, so you could only be tried for civil damages;Does anybody actually think its NOT illegal to download games you haven't paid for?
