Nintendo stalked 3DS pirates to shutdown their operation. No wonder it doesn't want Dolphin on Steam. (nintygamer.com)

  1. Piracy is not theft. It's unauthorized copying.
  2. Copyright is morally wrong and should be abolished.

  1. My language was in error, but you get the essence of my point

  2. Agree to differ. It is reasonable for the author or owner of a creative work to chose to protect their work and earn revenue from it. The Mouse has severely pushed copyright into something very far from what it should be, and it is in dire need of reform, but it certainly should not be abolished. Artists / creatives and rights holders (who may be one and the same, or may have purchased rights from the creator or may have funded the creation of the work which are all reasonable) should have the right to decide if their works are open / libre or a commercial work.
