Here’s the thing. The creators of Yuzu folded which is a win as far as Nintendo is concerned and a loss for everyone else who uses the yuzu emulators. Your semantics about the situation aren’t helping. All I did was supply a link to a news story that was already available on Lemmy on literally the technology community. This has already been hashed out.
And if Nintendo has its way (which they did this go round) they won’t have to. They got what they wanted and they’re not having to spend ridiculous amounts of money (that there’s basically no way to re-coup) on litigation. They sued a guy who can never pay them back what the court says he owes them. I doubt they want to go through that again. Easier to just for arbitrate the proceedings.

It’s true. They used Nintendo’s own cryptographic keys to make the yuzu switch emulation work.

That’s not code and Texas Instruments already lost on that one
The distribution of DRM encryption keys is very storied.

And Nintendo won.

Something something legal precedence. This hasn’t gone through court yet, has it?
