The story and work of Gary Bowser is pretty badass and would make for an interesting ama and event on lemmy. Here’s a recent article on Gary Bowser https://torrentfreak.com/gary-bowser-how-a-1980s-hacker-became-nintendos-nemesis-decades-later-230702/
Fuck Gary Bowser and Team Xecuter in general, he doesn’t deserve the punishment he got but I feel no sympathy for him.
Read up on how they stole GPL’d code from other Switch hackers for their closed source SX OS, and then had the fucking nerve to charge for it.
Piracy is one thing, but what they did hurt the Switch hacking scene, for their own profit.
Agreed. SOG did a video on him a few months ago.
I wouldn’t say no sympathy.
Lymphoedema is pretty awful, I feel bad for anyone living with it.

If that’s the case you probably wouldn’t release GPL software, you’d find a more permissive license, perhaps apache?
SX OS has anti-piracy measures in place which literally brick your switch.
