That's what you call an opsec fail

Yes, but it is also a bit scary / dystopian that a $62 billion company would go to such great lengths to have one of their own customers thrown in jail for using the product that he paid for in a way that wasn't hurting anyone.

You might want to look into what this dude was actually doing because he was really stupid. On like over a dozen occasions, he live streamed leaked games, days to weeks before their release.

He also sent Nintendo messages taunting them.

Dude deserves it.
