My vacuum doesn't require an internet connection.
My computer doesn't require an internet connection.
My fridge doesn't require an internet connection.
My washing machine doesn't require an internet connection.
My lawn mower doesn't require an internet connection.
My boiler doesn't require an internet connection.
My toilet doesn't require an internet connection.
My hair drier doesn't require an internet connection.
My bathtub doesn't require an internet connection.
My car doesn't require an internet connection.
My keyboard doesn't require an internet connection.
My doorbell doesn't require an internet connection.
My TV doesn't require an internet connection.
My phone doesn't require an internet connection.
And neither should my console.
Haven't you noticed that every major social change in history causes some people to panic and claim that the end of the world is nigh? Hell, philosophers complained about "kids today" in ancient Greece.
"I recently spoke to a lawyer for a decently large startup that isn't making any revenue, who has said that he's been contacted by patent trolls, who basically just keep circling, saying they won't sue until his company is making money, and then they'll pounce."
So basically the troll is running a protection racket, trying to intimidate enterprises into buying a license to reproduce the patented technology by threatening to sue for a much larger sum. Good thing we have the law to take care of those.
Re: Re:
"They didn't say anything about what emulators in general were created for."
Yes, they did.
"emulators created to play illegally copied Nintendo software"
And this is completely false. Not sure what part is confusing to you.

You must lead a very sad and depressing life. I pity you. I hope things start looking up for you some day.

Read and learn, kids. Never report a potential terrorist. You may get arrested for it and face trumped-up charges. Also, USA number one!
