A lobbying group from the Entertainment Software Association made bold and sometimes questionable arguments against the bill, including claiming that a community running private servers for games like Minecraft would be illegal.
WTF
That’s not “questionable,” that’s straight-up evil and totalitarian. There’s not any ambiguity about it, at all: the ESA wants to destroy private property ownership and subjugate us all as cattle to be milked.
Yah that might kill Minecraft and get things like vintage story bumpin
I’m sure they mean bedrock, not Java.
And I’m sure the judge is able to make that distinction with no issues.
It doesn’t fucking matter. Not even a little bit. It’s 1000% an attack on property rights and must be stopped by any means necessary.
Well then. I think someone is misconstruing something. Because surely they are not claiming Microsoft needs to stop offering what you just linked. … I assume the server software you linked isn’t forced to be public access?
I’ve been out of the Minecraft game a long time. I assumed Bedrock was facilitated by Microsoft servers only. It’s all I used back when VR was new in Bedrock.
We aren’t focused on the US one, we already know corporations have the legal system on a leash there
What’s it take to pass a bill in the California senate? The yea votes outnumbered the nays. I wish the author of the piece had gone into more detail about that.
