About Piracy

In the games industry.

People who pirate games fit into a number of categories...

  • People who want to try a game before buying it - they wouldn't buy the game first no matter what, and intend on paying for it if they like it. These people are a net positive on the developers' revenue.
  • People who already bought the game on a different store - they've already bought the game and are just moving platforms, you can't expect them to buy their entire library back. These people have no negative impact on the developers.
  • People who are unable to run the game with DRM - there are always going to be edge cases (linux gamers, for example) that might not be able to run the paid version of a game, they've either already bought the game or never will. These people have no negative impact on the developers
  • People who simply can't afford or can't legally obtain the game - there are gaming enthusiasts all over the world, some in countries where ~$50 just isn't disposable income

How to setup OpenSSH for Windows for ProxyJumping

ProxyJumping

Introduction

ProxyJumping is a method used to get access to a terminal in a private network via SSH.

First, you SSH into a JumpGate (a SSH server exposed to the internet), and then use that JumpGate to pass through a SSH connection to a machine on the JumpGate's local network. By the end of this guide, you should be able to seamlessly connect to a remote private host through a JumpGate with one parameter in a ssh command.

Security should always be paramount when establishing connections like this because the password of a JumpGate can and will be brute-forced by bots on the internet constantly.
