Your fans are not watching LPs. If they are the game's fans then they are playing the game themselves. People watch LPs for that specific person that they love. They are the LPer's fans, not yours. Your game is just a tool for the comedic effects.
If I made a home video of my family playing Scrabble and it becomes popular on YouTube, do you think Hasbro should be paid? No. People watch because my family is funny not because they want to watch someone play Scrabble.
Rolling back millions of players most of whom haven't even heard of the dupe? Or ban the handful of people who were involved in the dupe and revert any transaction they had with other people? Seems like an easy choice.
Only one of the two were fired. The person who was offended was also fired.
But really if she had just said something to them quietly no one would have been fired. But she had to take it to crowds of people who weren't even there.
If the shoes you bought were subsidized with taxpayer money would you still feel right about it? What if you go get free food from the homeless shelter and then turn around and sell it for profit?
A lot of countries subsidize textbooks so they cost next to nothing for the general public. This guy is profiting off of public good will.
I don't know about "simulating properly" when you lose connection to the server. Plenty of people have noticed traffic acting wonky, every single bus lining up to pick up a single passenger, every fire truck going to a single fire when there're other fires in the city, etc. These problems didn't exist during beta.
It's very probable that when the game loses internet connection or when the server is overloaded, the game simply fall back on a "dumb" AI. While this might work for the few minutes the connection is down, in the long term your city will suffer from so much traffic problems it just dies.
All current "cracks" are either fake, malware, or an infinite loop of survey sites designed to extract money from you. Writing a server emulator takes time and a lot of effort.
If you want an example... Diablo 3 is exactly the same way. There has yet to be a working emulator that has working quests and mobs for Diablo 3 released to the public.
There are a couple private servers out there but... if you'd still need an internet connection to connect to the private server then you might as well play on the official blizzard server.
What you're referring to is more often called information security. Cryptography usually just refers to the methods, algorithms, and protocols of transferring data.
But there's little point in arguing the semantics of words. I think we can all agree the human factor plays a large part in almost all intrusions these days.
I think the point is no encryption is going to protect you from users installing malware, buggy software, or just plain hand over data unknowingly. Next to no attackers would attack the cryptography itself. The weakest link is always somewhere else.
HAHAHA. My brother did exactly this. There was an email address that he wanted. Despite the fact that he couldn't sign up for the address at gmail or yahoo because it was already taken, he used that email to sign up for various services anyway. He could not understand the fact that he doesn't have control of the email address stops him from using it.
He has autism btw. I tried to explain this to him a million times and he still can't understand it.
Maybe because bugs that allow jail break are pretty damn serious as they allow for complete control of the phone. Other bugs that don't allow jail break aren't as critical.

It's third person, not first person (FPS).
Or they'd just flat out come out and say, "We don't want your business. Please find another ISP."

I use Chrome + AdBlock and I never see any YouTube ads at all.

It does have its own RSS folder by default...
On top of that you can set up incoming rules to auto sort them (mail too not just RSS) into folders, tag them, mark as read, or just about anything.
*gasp* Yes I use MS Outlook. Just so it's all sorted together with my email.

Parts of the game engine is on the server. Without the server part nothing would work. That is until someone writes a server emulator.

And what about the vast majority of the iphones out there that aren't jail broken?
Maybe because bugs that allow jail break are pretty damn serious as they allow for complete control of the phone. Other bugs that don't allow jail break aren't as critical.
You mean if I made something with my own materials in my own house I can't violate any patents?
I think you just found a loophole around every single patent there is out there.
Diablo 3 was the best selling PC game of 2012. So I think all you proved was people don't give a shit about always on connection requirement.
You might want to read that link again. Not any number 2^n-1 is prime. Just that a prime in the form of 2^n-1 is called a Mersenne prime.
And what do you do when the money goes to an oversea bank that wouldn't tell you where the money goes next?
You just have to find a doctors office who would pay for this part (co-pay) out of their own pocket in order to get more business.
Very often you'll find these doctors in chinatown or a jewish neighborhood.
People would leave very quickly if there're no new development in an MMO.
Lobster has been pretty cheap (compared to what they were usually) actually.
