This morning I read the article about Denuvo on Switch. What do fellow pirates think of this? Could it pave the way for that crap on other consoles as well? Is it time to become a datahearer? (⌐■_■)

On the bright side it will eventually make emulators more accurate

Note that 100% accuracy on emulators is not always a goal. Super accurate emulators might take more computation/emulation and run slower.

Emulators typically cut a lot of corners to make emulation faster rather than make it more accurate. A truly accurate emulator would be impossible for the software to differentiate from the actual hardware.
