Worse than that it's Abandonware with extra steps. He tries to justify it by pointing to the FAIR USE Act which as I noted never passed. What's worse is that the amendments to the DMCA proposed in that act have nothing to do with what he's doing. Shouldn't really be an issue for someone who just wants a fun toy to play with, but anyone touching this should go in with full knowledge.

- EarlKing 4y agoFor this particular implementation there shouldn't be since it is quite literally a disassembly of a product from the 1980s that was then translated to C. However, none of that matters as we're talking about copyright and the literal copying of the protectable expressions that constitute that work, not patents.
