Good Old Games on PIPA, SOPA, DRM, and other acronyms
If you are at all lightly beaten in the world of technology has probably noticed that there is a larger number than usual of acronyms flying around lately. While players are usually packed in the DRM issues, the Senate last protecting intellectual property Act (PIPA) and in Law House online piracy (SOPA) has raised some hackles by Destructoid, and rightly so.
We are not only annoying, though. I recently made contact with Trevor Longino, head of public relations and marketing good old games, a company that has spent his life fighting a high-tech industry to be controlled more and stronger in our games, to have PIPA another perspective, the soup, and the effects that these accounts may have on the game of consumption.
is just a manual: In the U.S., the economic times are difficult, and politicians have come to the end of the body of the next election. Needless to say, it is feared that things have not gone exactly as planned, and many are looking for a way to build support and make some powerful friends before the next round of elections.
What better way you comfortable with the elite of Hollywood and friendly draft legislation to support those who control one of the largest U.S. exports, entertainment? Enter PIPA and soup, two pieces of legislation sister for the government and large entertainment companies to wrap their fingers gnarled bone that surrounds the neck of consumers.
Ok, ok. This is one side a little and certainly sounds hyperbolic, but believe me when I say that these pieces of legislation could fundamentally change the way we use the Internet for the worse. If anyone is organizing infringement of copyright material on their site, then the owner of copyright should be entitled to go after them, right? I think we all agree on that, but SOPA PIPA and this process is too simple by eliminating the basic protections.
soon, if you are an advertiser on a website where the author infringing material occurs, you are responsible. If you sell an IP address to a person who then goes and does something illegal with it, you are responsible. If someone complains to the government on your website, you might find yourself on a blacklist of government and will be legally removed from Google search results. More than that, the IP owners be allowed to threaten and frighten the people involved in a site from top to bottom without having to take someone to court.
SOPA PIPA profess and protect intellectual property, but in fact, offer an unprecedented degree of power to editors and other intellectual property owners, all in the name of piracy and stop "protecting" the owners of intellectual property. PIPA and SOPA could allow large companies to retain the content of the Internet as a whole, and this is something we all fear. Needless to say, if you are in this
site that are interested in keeping the Internet free of government control of industry, but you get even closer to their homes.In my interview with Trevor Longino the good old games, talk about the effects of piracy and means of PIPA and SOPA could affect gaming and Internet commerce.
In your opinion, what effect is it having piracy in the entertainment industry? In the gaming industry in particular?
There is no doubt that piracy affects the industry. Although we are very, very opposed to DRM, we do not dispute the fact, but there are some facts worth noting. Piracy is not as devastating as some studies have you believe. People throw around numbers in the billions of dollars of lost revenue are few false equivalence.
Each copy of a game you download is not equivalent to a lost sale. In many cases, torrent trackers show inflated numbers of seeds and downloads. The numbers are not real fear, and being deceived about the impact of piracy, not rational look at what it really means for the industry and how to minimize effectively.
Legislation , DRM, including advertising campaigns ("Do not copy to disk" should ring a bell for players of a certain age) are not reduced hacking. Convince customers that they sell is the value of your money is the only way to do it.
Many large entertainment conglomerates have argued that the Copyright Act protection is necessary to stop the pirates "steal" their products. Even states that have been created "to promote prosperity, creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation in the fight against theft of goods from the United States ...." What effect do you think of DRM is to have the "prosperity", "creativity" and "innovation"? DRM is necessary to leave the players to "steal" your hobbies?
DRM does not stop the theft of the game, we will make that clear. This is a false argument to say that it is. All games left this year - each with any kind of DRM on it - has been hacked. Often before the game was still on sale in retail stores, but within 48 hours after its launch in both directions.
If DRM does not stop the flight, what does? Well, that
very interesting survey vigilant defender who led a few months ago, the value of video games. Nearly 50% of users surveyed said a major reason why pirated games is the lack of perceived value of the package. Whether you want the game unless they wanted more money or additional content in the package. This should sound familiar because it is
GOG.com model of the company. DRM is not necessary to stop piracy. We have shown that. The value of what you sell obvious, and will reduce the number of players who do not pay for games they play.
