God it's especially woeful having watched the hearing; the industry lobbyists gave the most flimsy counterarguments, and the one that seems to have stuck is that people might use the games for "recreational purposes". Something which we all know is impossible when watching a movie or reading a book. I will continue to reverse engineer and preserve games without the approval of the copyright holder. 5 comments
@moralrecordings "people might enjoy things? how fucking dare they >:(" @moralrecordings@digipres.club no no no, books are shudders educational and for losers and no sane person would enjoy reading them /s  @moralrecordings such garbage. And good on you for doing this. The game companies don't care about preservation. Their arguments were jokes.  @moralrecordings Some companies would rather set the Library of Alexandria on fire ten times over than lose an opportunity to monetize nostalgia. |

Here's the stream where I watched the hearings live. There was something special about watching enbies making the case for game preservation as I, an enby, worked on preserving a game.
