Can we talk about how uttlerly and completely BTFO Nintendo is?
Software like this allows you to pirate games straight from Nintendos servers, and they can't even do a single thing about it. It's the literal version of that bicycle comic.
How can Nintendo recover from this? Can they recover?
>>339940114
>bicycle comic.
I have no idea what that is.
>>339940114
don't kid yourself, Nintendo isn't losing a single dime. You wouldn't have bought those games anyway without piracy
>>339940857
You're using their bandwidth to download the games for free, which would cost them.
Has anyone used the Freakyforms exploit yet? I tried ordering it from a gamestop but the ones in my area are sold out. I ordered a copy from surubaby.com for $11. Waiting to get it this coming week.
They'll plug this pretty quick I'd wager, and ban any console that used the appto download to their system, and probably stop non-3DS/WiiU clients from connecting to their CDN and add actual auth checks to this shit. Although thefact their CDN allowed such a thing in the first place isnt reassuring.
Why is their security so bad.
>buying Nintendo games
>when Nintendo of America still exists
>>339941432
I don't think the CFW Scene gets any better than this.
This is probably worse than what happened to the PSP, as I don't recall being able to pirate straight from the playstation store.
>>339941278
Right now the Freakyforms exploit is mostly for people who need a primary homebrew exploit on the latest firmware.
It still won't be possible to perform firmware downgrades and cfw installation.

I was talking about the one about copying the bicycle and flipping off the store owner. I can't find it though.
>>339941432
They can't see if a console connected from the regular shop or the free shop.
>>339941437
Because, as we've discussed countless times before, Nintendo is behind the times. They operate like it's still 2005.
can you go to Japan's eshop?
Wait is this for real?
Pirates have created a way to browse actual E-Shop and get everything for free?
>>339943221
From what I've read, it lets you download from every region.
>>339940475
It's the one where a guy walks into a bicycle store and materializes a copy of a bicycle.
>>339940475
Copying is not stealing since the original product is still here.
>>339943508
Yes. Its gotten that bad.
So how easy is it to mod a 3DS? Mines just been sitting here, and I want to get some use out of it.
>>339943998
It's easy if you can read. The only difficulty lies in the whole process taking 3-4 hours and you getting distracted or impatient and skipping/fucking up steps.
>>339943876
What do I need for this?
Some specific game?
Because this is kinda fucking ridiculous.
>>339943998
Fairly simple if you're on 10.7 or below, worthless on 11.
Now when I say simple I mean that it's not hard to follow instructions however it is very time consuming and it can take you up to 5 hours or more to get it done.
>>339940114
Piracy might not be theivery, but this is.
>>339940114
>Can we talk about how uttlerly and completely BTFO Nintendo is?
I don't see it.
People using this would have pirated anyway.

Huh...
>>339940114
Post a link then, asshole. I google and I literally get a bunch of fishing scams that offer me codes
>>339940114
Nintendo could silently change the eshop log keys so anything else that accesses the server can be flagged and Nintendo can start sending out court summons for stealing.
>>339944393
On 10.7 now actually. Links?
>>339940114
It's Nintendo's fault in the first place for setting up a completely retarded system.
The ONLY reason why this works is because games are linked to your console and not a fucking NNID account. So all pirates need is the ticket file on their consoles for the server to know you """own""" the game to proceed the download. Whoever thought this was a good idea is hopefully fired by now.
And before anyone says they'll fix it, no, it can't be fixed unless they plan on completely redoing the eshop and finding a way to keep everyone's current purchases, which they can't.

10.7 you need to go the guide listed on /vg/ however you will need an entry point like OoT or Cubic Ninja and action replay powersaves or a friend that already has a hacked 3ds so you can put on a special save

>>339945402
No problem, don't update to 11 you also need powersaves to inject the save
>>339945451
It's a home brew entry point like ninjahax so as long as you're not on 11.0 it can be used for downgrading, yes.
But holy shit it hasn't even been 24 hours yet and Amazon and GameStops website are sold out. And it was removed from the eshop already. Best run to your local store and pray they have it.
Okay I have a 3ds on 9.2.0 and I used to use RXtools when the first exploits were coming out.
However the Rxtools bookmark no longer works and I havent kept up to date because there was no games I really wanted to play.
Where do I go from here?
>>339940114
what games?
>>339945660
I think once it was announced what game it was Nintendo put out a recall notice to all the stores which effectively makes it mandatory to yank
Anyone here play the new 7th Dragon? Any tips on beating these 2 in the Shadow Realm? My party is level 77, do I need to grind?

It's pretty easy guide is on /vg/
>>339945007
That didn't help at all, asshole
you know what, fuck it. This might sound weird, but I like buying games because it's just plug and play, just finding a reliable source for this is hard enough apparently let alone actually installing a hack
Funnily enough Nintendo UK Store still lists the digital version of the game.
http://store.nintendo.co.uk/nintendo-3ds-family-ddc/freaky-forms-deluxe-your-creations-alive-digital-download/10881625.html
What the chances though that if you buy this you can't redeem your download?
Their physical copies are out of stock too. This could be Cubic Ninja all over again.
>>339944373
You need to setup custom firmware on your 3ds
>>339945774
Get rid of rxtools and get menuhax and Luma. Start at #19 of the guide https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/Part-2-(Downgrading)
>>339945914
Wait, what's the advantage of Luma over CFW? I know Luma works off the Sysnand, but activates the hax before nintendo's system, but CFW has been pretty easy to use as well.
>>339946089
Luma is just another CFW like rxtools or cakes. What you're talking about is arm9loaderhax, which runs with another CFW like Luma.
>>339946089
It is a cfw, rxtools is deprecated Luma is just straight up superior at this point. You don't need to a9lh but you can.
>>339945187
>game online for free,

>>339940114
I get the feeling that with all this bullshit they are eventually going to pushback really fucking hard.
>>339941437
It literally took people to the end of the console's life cycle to start pulling this shit off. It took even longer for the 3DS.
I wouldn't call that bad. It's just that they FINALLY got a hook in that's letting them understand how shit works and is giving them an upper hand.
>>339947220
>Nintendo partners with Denuvo for NX
To be fair, they made it almost the whole way through the Wii U lifecycle without piracy.
Even the 3DS was practically dead in the water before it got hit with anything serious. The worst it had for the longest time was that card loader.
>>339945774
http://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-updating-from-rxtools-to-luma3ds.427735/
>>339947220
They would essentially need to rewrite the firmware of both the 3DS and the Wii U, and then they'd have to rework their entire authenticating process for the eShop just to "push back". Granted, they could ban people by doing a check for a couple things which are:
>Tickets for eShop games not purchased on the NNID with they could cross-reference when you logged onto the eShop or generally any online service.
>Out of region games being played on your system in general
>Tickets and titles for files that aren't official such as homebrew CIA files or custom VC files.
>Run a consistency check on the bootloader to see if everything checks out and if it doesn't you then either force the person to update or flag them as illegitimate.
>>339941432
Yeah, if it weren't for all those deluded employees who think of the Internet as "that new thing"
Seriously, the Wii sold on its own, they could have used money for HD and Online development (which was a thing even when the Wii released) but only started to care about that when the WiiU was done.
I think I'll pass on this one. Seems a bit too cocky.
There's programs out there that literally unban your console/NNID within seconds. That's how so many people are spamming Miiverse with custom images.
Nintendo can't do anything but pack up and make a new console with better everything.
>>339947220
Oh, eventually. In my experience, a lot of the 'We got them!' bragging from pirates is all talk.
Cemu, for example, faked a video that showed they got Bayonetta for Wii U running on an emulator to attract supports for their patreon campaign.
I'm sure Nintendo will brick consoles they catch doing this and update the eshop to make this impossible relatively quickly.
Shame about the lack of great games on the system.

1. If they can somehow force update everyone's consoles and manage to detect and brick hacked consoles, I would love to see them try and proceed to get sued up the ass since that's illegal.

Literally not possible. The keys used to authenticate downloads are the same as when you paid for them.
>>339947616
Piracy killed the DS's software development which is why you saw everyone just outright abandon it when the 3DS came out. Normally having such a large user base, companies will keep producing games for it. Ala the PS2 still getting shit until a few years ago.
>>339948515
> If they can somehow force update everyone's consoles and manage to detect and brick hacked consoles, I would love to see them try and proceed to get sued up the ass since that's illegal.
Except that's not the case since the EUSA states that if you mod your 3DS, Nintendo reserves the right to brick your system.
Of course they won't have the balls to go nuclear.

>>339950124
Unless there's a way to access the eShop without a NNID, Nintendo can just look up the logs and compare if a person has bought the games they're downloading.
The fact people are stealing them means it should be piss easy to figure that out if a person as a balance of 0, but downloaded $2000 worth of games.
>>339950593
But you had to make actual copies of the game on a disk. Digital games have made stealing games much more accessible.

>>339950638
A NNID is completely optional so that wouldn't work.

>Unless there's a way to access the eShop without a NNID
freeShop...
>Nintendo can just look up the logs and compare if a person has bought the games they're downloading
The games aren't account based or tied to a NNID. It's a per system basis.
Plus gifting games is a thing.
>>339940114
It's a shame that 3DS has a really disappointing library of games. Pokemon and Monster Hunter are literally the only games to look forward to this year.
>>339950638
freeShop is the way to access eShop without a NNID. And all freeShop sends to Nintendo is your IP, which they can do fuck all with.

Since this is a CFW thread, I have a question
I have mine up and running, but I tried to install the demo for Monster Hunter X, but it won't launch. Is it because it's Japanese and I need to do something different, or was it just a bad file?

Bruh, I couldn't even kill one of them. Shadow realm ChikaRika have too much defense. I'm running Duelist, GodHand and Single-Sword Samurai as the main party. I could cheese the previous dragons because GodHand ult nulls and I could set up and by turn 4 get the unison attack as well as Judgement, but with these 2, Rika instakills and Chika just kills
>>339951135
>The games aren't account based or tied to a NNID. It's a per system basis.
The thing is that your purchases are actually logged. If you log into your NNID your account history lists your purchases which they could cross reference. Yes, the tickets are tied to your console itself, but they could easily just scan your system as soon as it connect to the internet for tickets that shouldn't be there such as out of region games or eShop games if you don't have an NNID tied to the account(Or if you did at one point you can have it check) and then just ban the system and/or account from accessing the internet if something doesn't match.
It's not even from a downloading matter, just from a simple ticket matter since they're installed automatically from any CIA you get.
The only way around this would be to never go online with the system.
>>339954368
Nothing. But after that you should set up a different DNS to block updates, just in case.
>>339954368
No risk
>>339953525
I remember Hypnoes being some real tough shit though. But I guess if you're running GodHand, you should be able to make short work of it by using the ult.
>>339954620

>>339954627
Does your Samurai have Solid Stance? If not, then get it and spam your strongest avaiable move. Your Duelist isn't going to help much unless he gets Mana Gain or if you use him to set up X-Burn but then, you'd have two attackers who need to set-up and these two fuckers are just going to ruin all your build-up before you even start.
You need someone in your party to heal and provide support. Fortuner is the best class for that.
Agent is pretty busted with Assassin's React too if you equip two crit rings and use Rush Shot and they can also provide support with Trick Hands and Hacking, they fit well in almost any team.

The ticket is just used to authenticate the download. When you buy a game on the eShop, you get a ticket (the titlekey) that confirms you bought the game. The ticket isn't unique to you or your console, so anyone with the ticket can download the game.
There's literally 0 way of knowing if someone got it legitimately or not.

>>339955142
Dang, guess I gotta kick duelist, but then I don't get unison by turn 5... fuck. And I didn't teach Samurai solid stance because I also use Jinka React which I though was good for getting hit and then healing everyone afterwards.

>>339955532
>There's literally 0 way of knowing if someone got it legitimately or not.
But it's simple. Like I said, you could easily just see if the system itself was ever authorized to have the ticket in the first place by checking with the eShop if it was purchased through an NNID that was ever added. Granted this can't work for cartridge games of your region, however it can work for any eShop games since you have to have permission to have those since anything whitelisted would be accounted for and you need an account to have them, it can work for any game that isn't part of your region which can also be checked for, and so on.

I like free shit too, but I just can't for the life of me get behind this. I'm sorry. I'll "pirate" if it's not available in my region. I'll "pirate" if I don't like the localized version, but I just can't bring myself to steal games just because I can't afford them. Call me a moral fag or call me autistic, but I really think piracy has an impact on the video game industry. I don't think it helps it at all. In fact, I actually think piracy makes things worse. Why would nintendo waste resources when they know people are just going to steal? Why would any game developer do that? This is one of the reasons why a lot of developers feel the need to play it extra safe.
Now before you attack me, let me just say I totally understand /v/'s stance on Nintendo. They're apparently the worse thing ever and they "deserve" to die. Regardless of bad localization choices (which is all on NOA) and various other pants-over-head stupid decisions, I just don't believe that they deserve to die. I can't bring myself to abide by this board's witch hunt mentality. I still like Nintendo games. I liked my Wii U. I liked my 3DS. While I was enjoying games like 3D World, Tropical Freeze, Bravely Default, etc, I had no idea that I was literally having fun with "the worse console this gen." That's probably because this was before I started browsing /v/. I've grown to be more cynical towards video games since, unfortunately.
Regardless, I want someone to show me one game dev who believes piracy doesn't have a negative impact on them.
It's also worth noting that I don't buy (or pirate) a lot of games in general because I need to finish my fucking backlog. An unlimited amount of free games will only encourage me to continue that bad habit, but that's just me.
I don't care about pirating new games, how are the emulators for 3ds?
Nintendo deserves this. Fuck Neo-Nintendo.
>>339955979
Nigger the ticket IS the authorization. The ticket says "this guy paid for this product, and here is the permission to download the game"
The only difference from a regular transaction is that my cash isn't put into Nintendo's bank account.
>>339940114
is this not possible on the psvita or other consoles?
>people gloating over destroying sales and chances of localizations
I will never understand this. I mean, if you don't care for the games either way, and just happen to have a 3DS for some reason, I guess, but if you bought one to care for the games, doing this is only biting your own butt.
This isn't a "piratefags justify yourselves" post, I'm just saying that it seems weird, unless you buy the system especially for pirating on it.

How safe is it to install CFW? I've been avoiding the latest firmware because I'm still decisive about it. Is there any risk of bricking your system because I got a launch day 3DS with the ambassador games and hundreds of hours in MH4.
>Inb4 only if you're retarded
I'm not retarded but I get incredibly nervous when dealing with this rocket surgery shit which leads to me fucking up.
>>339956189
I feel a similar way, but because of the canadian dollar taking a dump and I doubt game companies will lower prices if it comes back to par I'm thinking of taking the dive.
how do i do this on my n3dsxl running 11.0.0?
I guess I'll have to wait for 11.0 to be supported. God dammit
>>339956665
Unless the real prices of retail games rise in your country it doesn't matter whether your currency changes at all
If matters if you're importing, which the business or you privately pay for
>>339956390
Never ever.
Sony may have abandoned the Vita but they'll be damned if they let you steal from them.
Also Vita gets a decent amount of localization announcements and piracy would kill it, 3DS is done so who even cares at this point?
>>339956819
They have though, 3DS games cost 50 dollars and PS4 games cost 80.
>>339956389
and I'm saying they can easily check their own personal records to see if you ever bought it by their own logs even if your system itself is telling them you bought it. Out of region tickets are a huge red flag since you can't use them to begin with, same with the eShop since you need an NNID to download them at all which would require them to have logged the system being authorized with the ticket. Your system might be saying "Hey, he bought this", but if their own servers don't list that that console ever paid for it through any NNID then that's another red flag which is why this wouldn't really work for your own region games that are on a cartridge.
When you have the system do a check for installed tickets when you go online it could easily throw up red flags for ones that aren't in their database(Homebrew) and ones that are not of your region(By comparing to your current update).
>>339956883
And they used to be... what? 40 and 70? Anyway, okay.
It's their fault for making all of that verification shit client-side.
>>339955979
The problem is that the account system wasn't a thing for years, and consoles even come with games pre-installed. Because of that, the entire system was built around the idea that the console itself could handle authentication. You have the ticket, you own the game. You transfer to a new 3DS, it transfers the ticket, you still own the game without having an account. They wanted an e-shop, but thought it would hurt sales to force parents to make accounts for their children.
Tons and tons of legitimate users have games on their system that aren't attached to any account, and cross-referencing anything will burn all of those people that actually paid Nintendo money.
>>339956883
And that kinda still doesn't justify stealing, but sure okay.
>>339956883
>>339956945
Oh I forgot to add, I'm just saying. I live in Norway and our currency tanked completely with the fall in oil prices recently. Games in my country hasn't gotten more expensive than they used to be, but it sucks for me because I usually import and when I pay in american dollars it's horrible because 1 USD used to be 6 kr, now it's 9 kr. Sucks.
>>339956665
I bricked my 3ds twice so I have a valid opinion. There is a really small risk BUT you can avoid a brick by formatting the 3ds before doing anything and the Plialect guide doesn't tell you that. That was the reason I softbricked twice and succeded on my third attempt.
Another advice is the whole process takes a lot of time. I suggest you to do it on a saturday then continue another day because it is tiring. 100% worth it, I'm replaying Ouendan because it's the greatest DS game ever
Hopefully this will teach Nintendo to stop making games! HAHA
THIS IS NOT NEW
I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR MONTHS
The app is just a brain-dead version of it (not that the original version wasn't easy enough).
I literally go to the eShop and browse, then pull anything I want.
>>339957015
>Tons and tons of legitimate users have games on their system that aren't attached to any account
Which are whitelisted. When you system transfer you're forced to sign into an NNID for example so anyone transferring things like that would leave a trace. Even if they didn't, they can only have certain specific pack-in CIAs anyway.
>>339957105
How'd you manage to unbrick? Is it a failsafe or luck and how does one go about formatting the system? Unless you mean the SD card.
>>339956406
>People are planning on pirating Zero Time Dilemma, a game built on miracles and many a wish upon a star
People make me sick. That's just something you don't fucking do.
THE BICYCLE ANALOGY DOESN'T WORK YOU FUCKING RETARDS, OF COURSE YOU WOULD DUPLICATE A MATERIAL OBJECT IF YOU COULD, THAT WAY EVERYONE WOULD HAVE WHAT THEY NEED AND WE WOULDN'T NEED MONEY, MONEY LITERALLY EXISTS BECAUSE WE CAN'T DUPLICATE OBJECTS FOR FREE SO WE HAVE TO TRADE, FUCK YOU'RE STUPID
as someone with a hacked N3ds with A9LH, I can't wait until nintendo blows the fuck out of people for downloading shit DIRECTLY FROM NINTENDO SERVERS. It's very possible that they won't, but how fucking stupid can you be
>>339956665
It is possible to damage your console, but only because of user error. All applications involved have been perfected to the point you won't just get bullshit errors halfway though.

I'm only thinking of pirating games which already had their prime, games with botched localizations, JP only games. I sure as hell plan on buying DQ7 and 8, botched translation or not. Series needs love.
>>339957258
I still buy games I really like. Tons of people do.
>>339956840
> 3ds is done
What fuels this meme? Literally all the Vita gets is extremely low budget games from Japan.
3DS has actual recognizable franchises getting worked on.
>>339957278
Nintendo is fucking stupid.
They could have blocked the emunand stuff ages ago, but they never did. All they do is patch up the current holes and that's it.
>>339957238
If the 3ds bricked because of a failed downgrade (my case) or udpdate you have to force a system update, which forced me to install 10.7 and therefore buying a powersaves and OoT. OoT looks pretty but I'm not sure if I'm keeping the game I already beat a hundred times.
To format the 3ds see pic attached
>>339956665
I used the Plailect guide all the way through to put CFW on two systems now, everything went smoothly both times. Just don't skip anything nor use any half-measures, follow the guide all the way through.
>>339945346
It does however always include the removal of the stolen subject from its previous owner.
Unauthorized access to Nintendo's servers, with unauthorized use of Nintendo's bandwidth, is no doubt a crime though.
But file sharing is not, and will never be theft. You people are running words to the ground with your bullshit.
>>339957476
I know, but this gives them insane motivation because people are now using their servers directly. Pirates are forcing their hand.
>>339942891
only currently.
they may add some tells to the eshop later
>>339957535
Do you need powersaves? I already have OoT.
I'm on latest firmware, can I downgrade?
>1. You will not upload, post, discuss, request, or link to anything that violates local or United States law.
>>339957740
Unless you know somebody with homebrew access who can inject the hacked save file for you, yes you do
>>339957740
A Powersaves is needed only when your System Menu is over 10.6
If you happen to be on 10.5 or lower you just need to do Browserhax
>>339957771
11.0 patched downgrading, nope.
>>339957198
Here's the thing. Even to this day, an account is not actually required to buy games on the eshop. You have to have one to get free stuff like trailers and demos, but not stuff you buy. I know because I have a Japanese 3ds and used point cards to get some stuff. No Japanese NNID.
That's the major problem on their end. How many of their users do not have an account? How many legitimate customers would be affected by trying to plug a hole that they don't have the information needed to plug?
>>339940114
I had the oppurtunity to mod my 3ds but opted not to, I wanted to support the official release of fire emblem Fates.
I don't the franchise to die, so I did the right thing.
>>339957853
>Taking the time to funpost
>Instead of deleting your fucking notifications
>>339957984
just for that im gonna pirate it even harder
>>339957938
Shieet I'm on 10.7
>>339957198
Are you actually retarded? How do you distinguish between someone who purchased a game with no NNID and someone who pirated the ticket? You can't directly pay for games, as the only monetary transactions are to one's eshop wallet.
Is this thing better than CIAngel?
If not, why bother?
>>339953002

The 3DS is like 5 years old. The new Pokemon is the last big shit the system will get.

You don't yet.
>>339957669
True, file sharing is not theft. Bandwidth is a finite resource though. Taking their bandwidth is theft.
Sorry if you think I'm moving goalposts. I am a different anon after all.
>>339957984
This doesn't even make sense since if you wanted to support the official release you still could have hacked your 3DS and bought the game legit. Meanwhile you could have still played an undubbed or uncensored version of the game.
>>339957853
>don't live in the US
What now, cuck?
I don't see how anybody could do this to Nintendo. They're the one company that has always had the gamer in mind. They might not always be right, but they have never once tried to screw the gamers, cheap them, or nickel and dime them.
Stealing from Nintendo would be like taking money from your forgetful grandparents (in 4 i hate my grandparents you miserable fucks)
They're the one company i WOULDN'T steal from. If you don't want to pay for their games, don't play them.
>>339958357
You always pop up in these threads. Anon, nobody cares about DQ in the west. Nobody will pirate it. You can't blame pirates for SE awful localizations.
>>339958575
You're saying this when they've censored everyone of their releases for the last year?
What have you been pirating so far?
>>339958275

>Implying I don't spend my honestly earned money on games that deserve it like Senran Kagura 2
How about that mr moralfag
It's been quite some time since I kept up with the scene for 3ds stuff.
If I've already got CFW set up and shit I can just update reinand and then update the emunand normally, yeah? Unless of course the latest reinand doesn't have support for the latest firmware?
>>339958627
I know no one cares about it in the west, but it's still a huge deal for the system.
>>339958690
You don't get to high horse with that argument. You can't rationalize stealing a game from a company because you don't like how they produced their intellectual property. It's fully within their right to do so, and I don't like it either, but like hell I'm gonna steal it.
>>339958851
basicly GB and GBC games
>>339958852
A new Nintendo gen is coming next year.
>>339958575
If this was before Iwata died, I probably would've agreed. But ever since then, they've been a total shit show. Ultra Smash, amiibo Festival, Star Fox Zero, censorship and delays up the ass, mobile, delaying games just to make more amiibo despite being 100% finished, no real E3 or Digital Event, and so many other cancerous things. Fuck 2016 Nintendo.
>>339958557
You can still get banned, fucking idiot.

They're making bad business choices but you must believe they're not doing it to try and fuck over their consumer. Like I said, literally stealing from your confused old grandparents who love you but don't know what to do anymore.
>>339959436

>t. guy who thinks fixing exploits is super easy but hasn't done a lick of coding
i don't give a shit about stealing games, what steams my broccoli is that there are quite obviously ways to back up your save data and to use custom themes and nintendo intentionally does not fucking do it
what the literal fuck
>>339959508
Nintendo doesn't love you tho
>>339940857
>You wouldn't have bought those games anyway
This. I've had my 3DS for 3 years, and only bought 5 games in that time. Bravely Second was the final straw, never felt so cucked in my life after paying for that turd.
Piracy lets me drop shitty games after a couple of hours, without the guilt of having wasted all that money on games that have been marked up 50% because Australia.
>>339959998
>that have been marked up 50% because Australia
Stop this fucking meme right now.
>>339959046
Companies always justify themselves by saying the people who notice or care about the censorship are tiny minorities and the amount of business they represent ultimately don't matter compared to their target audience. By that logic, the people who pirate because of censorship are a tiny minority, and their lost business doesn't matter.
