    That… is not at all specified what kind of “mine” it would be. You’re assuming it’s innocuous, everyone else is assuming it’s malicious. But we’re all making assumptions.

      Based on the context it would only affect people who pirate it.

        Or people who trigger some false positive in whatever way they implement such a piracy detection.

          Which has never happened in the history of forever and I’m sure this will go just fine after he spent a whole two days implementing DRM in the first place.

            The Special-K mods have a history of false positives so it’s not like this is a new problem.

              There is a great vibrant history of people being fucked by false positives.

              Which is why the whole “It doesnt make mistakes, you filthy fucking cheater” mentality is astonishingly stupid.

              Wasnt there a time when Winamp was triggering false positives and triggering bans?

        Right, just like Denuovo only impacts people who pirate games that use it.

        Or DRM only impacts the people who pirate movies and TV.

        A tale as old as time itself really.
