In cases like this, I avoid the word #hacker, because to me, true #hackers are the good guys.
In the 1980s (and today), people who illegally copy software or media were called #pirates. To me, these people today, that break into systems & hijack them for ransom are committing true #piracy. I imagine them bringing their digital ships up alongside & boarding the victim.
The 1980s pirates are just #thieves.

"Trump says US Navy acting ‘like pirates’ to enforce Iran blockade ~ The US president says the ongoing naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is ‘a very profitable business’."

Israel & #Piracy on High Seas
Aid flotilla heading to #Gaza has been #intercepted by #Israel more than 500 miles from its destination
Global #Sumud Flotilla, set sail for Gaza earlier this month, reported being surrounded by dozens of drones, speedboats and large military warships while sailing in international waters off the coast of Greece overnight on Wednesday.

So #Denuvo was beated at the end of the day?
There is a lot of "pirated" games that were protected with Denuvo are now playable without the protection:
- #Wukong
- #ResidentEvilRequiem
- #Pragmata
- #FC26
- #AssassinsCreedShadows
- #StellarBlade
- #CrimsonDesert
- #MonsterHunterWilds
- An many, many more.I wonder what's the performance difference between Denuvo and Denuvo-less copies.

I was doing my #UMass #UMassAmherst #IT setup and... what's that? #P2P doesn't invented for #piracy, and, as a CS person, I cannot just uninstall #torrent clients, #IPFS, #Blockchain and other P2P systems because they can be abused. It's like banning #AI because @[email protected]'s #Mythos exist.

oh no animetosho is shutting down next month😭😭 it was so convenient to discover #anime torrents: it had a search, and individual shows pages where you could see all the torrents per season, and filtering and sorting, and searching inside a season - all i could wish for anime #torrent agregator and everything so convenient😔
it took torrents not only from nyaa, but from some other sources like tokiotosho, nekobt and others
they will release all the data and source code so maybe someone will set up an alternative after the shut down, i hope so
i will warmly remember that site, wish the developer has his rest and opportunites for new projects🙏(only now i realised it also has links to traditional file sharing style downloadern like you click "download" and the browser downloads a file but who even needs this when there are #torrents which are so much superior to that)

Why then should I give my Readers bad Lines of my own, when good Ones of other People’s are so plenty? ‘Tis methinks a poor Excuse for the bad Entertainment of Guests, that the Food we set before them, tho’ coarse and ordinary, is of one’s own Raising, off one’s own Plantation, &c. when there is Plenty of what is ten times better, to be had in the Market. — On the contrary, I assure ye, my Friends, that I have procur’d the best I could for ye, and much Good may’t do ye.
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist

GitHub Reports DMCA Takedown Record and Surging Anti-Circumvention Claims

If the #USA is going to take up overt #piracy on the high seas, they should at least be required to dress and speak like proper #pirates.
All US #pirate crews should meet at least a 20% quota of wooden legs, and the crew to #parrot ratio must not exceed 3:1. Every ship must have at least one pure pirate: missing eye, missing leg, and parrot.
The Iran Lego AI machine is working hard on this, but I want real live pirates and parrots.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@kottke/116404369726769991
Fixed it: "For decades, Aadam Jacobs stole the copywritten performances of artists he supposedly loved. His illegal collection of over 10,000 intellectual property thefts since 1984 features popular artists who never granted him any such rights — and his atrocious crimes are now available on the Internet Archive for you to steal, too."

The topic of #piracy is complex
How do we reward #artists, but not predatory #media corps?
But even the most diehard anti-piracy opinions out there can get behind this:
If you must watch the new #HarryPotter adaptation, which I will not link to nor describe where it is:
#Pirate it
If you don't, you are funding a vile #TERF in #JKRowling who will use that money to harm #trans people
Everyone else can watch #SNL:

The Supremes sided with an ISP instead of the music industry, ruling that Cox isn’t responsible for what its users do.
Back in 2018 Sony Music, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group and dozens of other rightsholders sued Cox, arguing the company ignored over 163,000 infringement notices about subscribers illegally downloading more than 10,000 copyrighted songs.
The labels pointed to evidence that a #Cox manager overseeing piracy compliance told his team to “F the DMCA.”
A jury sided with the labels in 2019, awarding $1 billion. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals partially overturned that verdict in 2024, throwing out the vicarious liability finding but keeping the contributory infringement ruling and ordering a retrial.
The Supreme Court took up the case last June and has now reversed the remaining contributory liability finding entirely.
Fuck the #DMCA indeed.
