I really with the @humble bundle wasn't supporting ultra-DRM'd distribution systems like EA's Origin :(

@NotALemur DRM is basically a revocation of the first amendment, wholesale. -
@NotALemur No "Fair Use" doctrine. No exemption for news, or education, or parody. - Show replies

@cmuratori My opinion is, if you sell digital things, which can be copied, you'd want to find some way to control it.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cmuratori Steam controls it while also making it actually very convenient, since you can access your games from any computer. That's good.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cmuratori Same thing with, say iOS. You log in, download stuff you bought, and the DRM is transparent until you try to do something wrong.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cmuratori Transparent DRM is the right way to do things. I don't think people should be able to copy games.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cmuratori However, I don't think innocent consumers should have bad DRM in their face, either. Online only games, CD keys, shit like that.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@cmuratori But all in all, we're talking about control over a publisher's games; their unimportant property designed for entertainment. -
@NotALemur That is not how many of us who are trying to make meaningful games think of them. We do not consider them mindless entertainment.

@cmuratori This isn't anything as important as health or human rights, so please stop equating it to such. It's just video games.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
