some companies will get creative with it and make their source available but in a way that is useless without the backend. And even if they don't maliciously comply with the license, they can still charge for their services.

What is wrong with charging for your services?

Open source licences aren't meant to make it impossible to earn money or anything. As long as companies comply with the licences I don't see anything wrong with it.

If a licence wants to make it impossible to earn money they should put that in the actual licence.

Well, I can understand that APs wouldn't be allowed since having lots of APs in one space makes it worse for everyone.

Wired should be allowed though.

Wasn't that allowed?

And it'll cause more injuries than deaths.

That is the entire problem with chemical weapons. They injure people badly.

That's why chemical weapons are banned while bombs aren't.

Personally I don't give a shit about justifying my piracy. There are a lot of people in this sub that can't do anything else.

You don't have to have a technical background though. Anyone from any background could learn it if they wanted too. A technical background obviously helps though.

Sure dude.

I paid for the product, now I'm gonna use it the way I want to.

Well obviously you are too scared to do that, lol.

P.S. If you dislike Nintendo don't buy their products in the future and just pirate on a PC

I never said there was anything wrong with that, I have pirated multiple terabytes of various stuff including Nintendo games (though I play them on my Deck).

I was just explaining what your "philosophical" (🙄) reasons were.

Also you could just sell the switch if you don't like Nintendo. Don't pretend that you are forced to pirate or something.

They want free stuff.

What's wrong with gecko?

I don't know the breakdown but I know that creators generally earn much more per premium view vs normal view.

Also what the hell is up with everyone saying "free as beer"?

Beer isn't free!
