    Yeah, but that’s not the nature of how software is distributed these days. Do you have a modern solution?

      We could push for a law that makes it open source after a certain period of time or make copyrights only useful while it’s being used.

      The problem is there is so much on the backend nowadays. I used to play star wars galaxies which was mainly run on the backend. Even pirates can only pirate the front end.

      I started to play as a way to keep up with friends when I moved away. We use to play and chat till the early morning on the weekends.

        That’s relying on big government to solve our problems for us. And that’s not a reliable strategy when big business wants those problems to stick around so they can make us buy more new crap. Piracy is a solution that we, the people, can implement right now.
