I mean you make a few good points but I specifically called out your TotK edit because it doesn’t seem directly attributable to their team. It’s not like the yuzu people hacked Nintendo. That they may have encouraged piracy on their discord is not really relevant considering what your quote implies (that they somehow helped TotK leak). In any case, I played that leak on my actual switch and subsequently purchased the game as well because it’s amazing. You’re welcome to call me a bad person for doing that, but I would just say that it’s a nuanced issue and people probably don’t deserve to have their lives straight up ruined for it.

This settlement will probably not ruin people's lives, because no person has been sued. It'll ruin their liability-limited company, who had been profiting financially off all of this, but if the liability limit works as intended, then the actual Yuzu developers are shielded from the effects of this lawsuit. And the reason why I consider the TotK leak problematic is because the moderators were joking about all the new patreon subscribers caused by it. And that means they were, at that time, fully aware that they are enabling large-scale piracy. And their company was making money off it. The estimate discussed in the discord was 40k leak players, which at $60 each would be 2.4 mio in lost sales. By coincidence, that also matches the settlement amount that Nintendo asked for ;)
