    The point I was trying to make is that at some point it’ll be impossible or nearly impossible to do piracy

    Piracy has always been illegal, and has always happened anyway. There is no way to make it impossible. Even Denuvo, the currently best anti-piracy measure, can be cracked and makes the experience worse for paying customers.

    you need to fight by other ways than just piracy, like getting the right laws passed.

    I don’t live in the country that needs to pass those laws.

      I hope you’re right, but I wouldn’t be so confident in that. As time goes on, and they bake more of the DRM into the hardware directly, it’ll be harder to circumvent (for the common person at the very least).

      For example, the Sony PlayStation used to be very hackable, now it’s not (last time I checked).

      I don’t live in the country that needs to pass those laws.

      I would imagine that, as the world gets more International and interconnected, that might change, at some point the future. If it doesn’t, then good for you.
