    Does that make sense in terms of DMCA and yuzu tho? youtube-dl got taken down for DMCA reasons on GitHub a while ago, while that was pretty much just bs. I haven’t looked too much into what yuzu does, but it seems like it’s just an emulator without any tools you’d need to also get it to run, to get the game data and some Switch (DRM?) keys. That’s comparable to browser cookies being used by youtube-dl to download websites’ media.

    Also (to me) it more looks like the yuzu devs themselves made stupid choices to promote piracy, not really including the actual app code though
