Seriously what is this? Nintendo argues that by instructing users how to extract the prod.keys from their own switch the yuzu developers are essencially infringing on the DMCA.

So what? Now you can't even freely use your own property anymore because it goes against the design intentions of some big company that just want's to milk their users?

Nintendo goes directly after this argument in its lawsuit, arguing that buying a Switch game only means you "have Nintendo's authorization to play that single copy on an unmodified Nintendo Switch console."

Like, why dont people who can just move?

Kind of a catch-22.

America is the best country in the world, if you're rich. Once someones earning a lot and saved up move to New Zealand money the appeal isn't as strong for most.

immediately go for northern europe

Oof. That's akin to moving there in 1938. Bit of a risky proposition to say the least.

I wouldn't move there now if allowed and I don't even have illegally move to Mexico money.

Indeed. The people who desperately need to leave cant and those who could arent in hot water, yet. Thats why I think folks who are being laid off by tech overlords should consider rooting it all up rn. Because your employer cant fire you in germany without cause or has to provide means to find a new job. I was talking about nordic countries earlier but this system is pretty awesome, even if everything else is meh atm.
