Denuvo gets its biggest blow yet as pirates have now run out of Denuvo games to crack as of April 2026. All non-VR games are bypassed using Hypervisor. Will countermeasures do something?
On my last computer I downloaded the Harry Potter game and it was cracked by Empress, a vicious anti-trans right-wing Russian woman. I just hung out in a telegram when the game was released and man the toxic shit she spewed was nasty. Proper fking nasty.
And I purposefully disabled the security on my PC and installed something she made.
Yes it was stupid, but I was lonely and really nostalgic for Hogwarts and felt less like donating actual money to a billionaire trans-hater than possibly giving a Russian trans-hater access to my machine.
In real life, she is probably a gay male accountant from Ohio. I feel like people in these situations go out of their way to create alternate identities.
But yeah nothing there to disprove your hypothesis though, but the way it’s been going in the world, there’s definitely more Russians pretending to be Americans online than the other way around. Lemmy is chock full of Davels (davel@lemmy.ml)

and people would probably still offer to buy the panties they wear.
Probably not in the US but yes…
Everyone who does this kind of shit in the ‘land of the free’ gets to find out just how much freedom corporations have.
Idk man, should’ve seen the shit she was writing. Also she’s a pretty big deal in the cracking circles afaik.
