@saneyuki2000 @bottikurihu Indeed. The problem with copyright law is that it's very abstract and the consequences for breaking it very distant, so people (from any country) tend to not intuitively grasp the stakes as they do with violent crimes and such.

@atomicgbread @bottikurihu 両方ないと治安のいい世界は作れないのさ

別に日本でもWinnyやら割れやら流行したし法を無視する奴はいくらでもいる。 ただ近年の海賊版の扱いに関しては 「マジコンと漫画村という海賊版大手を根こそぎ燃やし尽くし見せしめにした」 というのが大きいだろう。一罰は百の言葉と道徳を凌駕する。

@yamanakanobody Grok sure translated that idiom literally.

@yamanakanobody I heard that Alita: Battle Angel was comparatively unobjectionable, although that's a low bar to pass.

@gerogeroR There are a variety of statutes winding their way through the legislative process in different countries, some of which are more reasonable than others. I don't think any of them require providing ongoing service indefinitely, but some require providing an "offline" mode.

オンゲを「いつまでもプレイできるようにしろ」という裁判はさすがにむちゃくちゃで、気持ちはわかるが、「ならプライベート鯖を自分でたてろや。そのプライベート鯖をたてるためのデータは提供する」ならわかるんだけど、鯖の管理費までゲーム会社に未来永劫負担させようみたいになってるのはさすがにテイカーすぎんか・・・・。

@PKAnzug "Be tolerant of others' behavior and be considerate in your own" is a useful maxim, although you must push back when nuisance behavior crosses a line.

「日本は『他人に迷惑かけないように生きよう』って教育されるけど、インドとかでは『他人には迷惑をかけるものなので他人の迷惑も許してあげよう』と教えててステキ！」みたいな言説は昔からチラホラ聞いてたけど、迷惑系配信者とかを見ると、やっぱ迷惑かけない教育の方がいい気がする。

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso Apologies, Grok tends to translate pronouns too literally. The US Supreme Court.

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso As subtlety of the decision is that they did not consider whether such organization is even copyrightable in the first place, since they concluded that even if it is, it's "fair use" to replicate it regardless.

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso The heart of it is that replicating overall program organization and function (e.g. protocols, APIs) is "fair use" (a legal use of copyrighted material without owner permission) so long as the original implementation code is not substantially copied.

People I might be interested in following: - Japanese muscle guy who is currently running wild in the Japanese media piracy discourse - A sitting US senator Thanks, X, very cool.

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso The code is hosted in the US on Github, which is owned by Microsoft. US copyright law is quite permissive when it comes to reverse engineering and interoperability. Look up the Google LLC v. Oracle America, Inc. case.

@atomicgbread @Tats_Gunso それは君が法律読んだことないからそう思うんだよ

@learning_yohei I thought I saw one once, but it was just a speck of dirt on my glasses.

日本人からする、アメリカの兄弟達ってすごいお金たくさん持ってるイメージなんだけど みんな企業とかしてるのかな？？

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso Are you suggesting that recreating the functionality of a program *without even looking at the original* is akin to adapting the content of a novel into a movie? You don't even need to be a lawyer to be skeptical of that analogy.

@atomicgbread @Tats_Gunso それは著作権法に関して勘違いしてるだけ。 普通に違法だよ。 翻案権で調べてみて。

@Lol8ball I think the problem is that it acted as a nucleus for a latent discussion about piracy of Japanese media in general, even though this particular example is pretty innocuous: it probably doesn't violate the law, and financial impact on Square Enix is essentially nil.

My For You page is showing me a lot of Japanese posters who are in support of the Nier gacha being preserved and actively criticising their countrymen trying to make this a purely piracy issue. Important to remember Twitter only shows you the most polarising posts for engagement.

@keithjohnstack DAMAGED

I’ve seen a lot of Japanese posters confused by the lax attitude towards media piracy in the west. Overseas, we like to embrace a sort of “sick and twisted” mentality, like the Joker from Batman. We imagine the rights holders losing money and start laughing maniacally.

@Japaota2025 @Tats_Gunso The server code was created from scratch, so there is no direct problem with copyright. No copyrighted data owned by Square Enix is being distributed.

@atomicgbread @Tats_Gunso それを公開してしまっているので違法の可能性が高いです。

@momiji_manjyuu You fiend. Apologize to God and Buddha.

俺は無断学習AIを使ったり違法コピー動画を視聴したりメーカーに利益が入らないルートでゲームを入手しエミュでゲームやってる極悪人だぞー！クリエイターに無断で著作物をコピーしたりMODでゲーム改造もやってるぞ！ネットに違法アップロードもしてるぞ！外国人に文句言ってるお前らは俺も叩け叩けー

@neetori_ch Being able to directly buy ROM files and stick them on a flash cart or run them on an emulator would be fantastic. There are aftermarket games that can played this way, but legally obtaining original titles in such a form is unreliable if it's possible at all.

a million dollar idea: > make a steam-like storefront that sells legit ROMs direct from the devs > devs still get the money from the sales, not random joe selling for 999$ on ebay > the devs happy > the gamer happy > the japanese patriots are happy too (perhaps) pic unrelated
