That game seems pretty loved, I wouldn’t be that surprised about a remaster. Though it would have to be a pretty barebones if it can’t compete with a ten year old release.

Not really an advocate for piracy but I wouldn’t have any qualms about recommending that route to you.

It’s also worth giving them the benefit of a doubt. It might be just a bug or an oversight.

I don’t see how player data even would be worth risking GDPR fines. But at least you don’t have to worry about it.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives individuals the right to ask for their data to be deleted and organisations do have an obligation to do so, except in the following cases:

• the personal data your company/organisation holds is needed to exercise the right of freedom of expression;
• there is a legal obligation to keep that data;
• for reasons of public interest (for example public health, scientific, statistical or historical research purposes).

You can’t delete your account if you’re banned? Seems a bit iffy.

Do the AI scrapers use FediBuzz or just the same method as FediBuzz? If the latter, couldn’t the servers just issue a private API key (or whatever, I’m not that tech savvy) for FediBuzz?

Unfortunately, Mastodon is killing FediBuzz in its next 4.2 update.

Any idea why they’re doing this?
