He rolled 20 on ambush

*on american scale. Most american lefists wouldn't look out of place in russian coalition of right forces.

Not offing CEO

I think USSA probably has its own version of OVD Info.

He can run on platform of radical reduction of inequality

I think only few countries on entire planet whose prison systems are made to prevent crimes by solving people's problems instead of keeping them criminals by worsening them.

First "witch" burned by inquisition of capitalism

Just because the USA broken system is that way doesn’t mean it’s the norm, nor should it be how it’s actually done.

Dude, I know you are upset with your legal system. Who wouldn't? But we are discussing EU here.

One of the big issues I see from a developer standpoint is the potential for leaking proprietary code

It is no longer proprietary then.

that they may not want to publicize like things related to authorization,

If it has any impact, then it means they were insecure all along. Or in other words, they had CWE-656 vulnreability.

server side anti cheat implementations, etc.

There are lots of effective opensource anticheats. Server-side, obviously. See minecraft anticheats.

and potentially inter-org collaboration to develop common OS standards

So, POSIX?

it could incur risk to the org’s other current/future projects in addition to helping outside sources get a leg up on said other current/future projects.

It's called anti-social behaviour. "Why help someone else?"

so many boomers retiring/dying

Most of which are in bloated managerial staff. And humanity already can dramatically increase labour efficiency, it just doesn't do it. Not because "humanity is not ready", but because those, who benefit from capitalism, choose not to.

each much less experienced and capable than those they are replacing

Same as last always. Nothing changed.

This cannot help but put the lever of power in the hands of organized youth.

Eventual death of current old will eventually put lever of power in current youth.

Your reply basically was "even if they will not profit from it, they still can abuse company by doing it". It does not address critique of implicit assumptions such takes.

Such position is fundamentally anti-social and similar to making shopping center contaminate enviroment with radiation when company, that owns it, goes bankrupt, because "it would open ways for abuse". Except it's even more nonsensical(see 2, 3 and 4).

If anything, this is not an argument against SKG, this is argument against capitalism as a whole.

I don't think so. There might be only shortage of underpaid overqualified slaves.

AWS

Which runs very same dedicated server. And, as it was pointed out above, source code is fine too.

It is already possible, but very time consuming and expensive. You need at least team of reverse engieneer and developer.

It's a petition that would be presented to legislators who would write the actual law.

Oh-ho-ho! It's about to get better: they can instead say, that existing laws cover this. Which will have even greater impact.

The game that kicked off SKG in the first place is an example of this, as far as I've heard The Crew was better received than The Crew 2 and 3.

It actually was just convenient moment. SKG was started long time ago.

Replace shock with shock

Both? Both. Both is good.

It's such a garbage argument when you can just counter with "okay then, release software which allows the public to run them for themselves".

Which you can help by signing European Citizens' Initiative. If you are EU citizen that is.

I prepared for this argument very long time ago.

He omits a number of unrealistic assumptions:

1. Bots buying game somehow is not infinite money glitch for developers. Assumption of complete lack of mental capacity of dev.
2. Nobody except 'Bad Guy' can run server. Or if there is, none of them will run server just to play game instesd of profiting. Assumption of complete lack of mental capacity of players.
3. 'Bad Guy' somehow makes more money from servers than spends on botting.

And now I will add new assumption I missed:

4. 'Bad Guy' spends less on botting, than it costs to reverse engieneer protocol or make new game.

EDIT: forgot most important assumption, that was in another message:

0. Game should not loose players, or there will be nobody to profit off.
