You apparently have no clue in the events that occured.
1) Nesticle, 8bit Nintendo emulator, was never an open source code project.
2) This lamer never claimed to author the source code, nor did he change the author's name to his own.
3) This lamer never released Nesticle as his own work, all copyrights (if any) were left intact. The archive was a snapshot of the author's work-in-progresss.
4) The source code to Nesticle was obtained with minimal effort. Sardu, the author, enabled Windows 95 file sharing over TCP/IP.
5) And this lamer also happen to maintain one of the first underground oriented websites, Damaged Cybernetics, from April 4th 1995 to April 4th 1997. Mainly offering support to those with console copiers for the Super Nintendo, Nintendo, Sega Genesis, GameBoy and other systems in forms of programming tools, hardware documentation, source code, cracking tools, etc...
Released an article in 1995, describing the process of Authenticating Microsoft CD Keys, distributed with C source code. c2.org's Hack Microsoft contest linked this article and source code to thier site.microsoft contest.
In 1995, Netscape first released Javascript. Also in 1995, we released one of the first hostile javascript code and Netscape 2.0 mailto: flaw
Eventually TyphoonZ (Chris Hickman) joined up with Damaged Cybernetics by affliating Archaic Ruins to supplement more emulator specific content. Using the existing popularity of the site, Chris was able to help spread emulator related news, releases, and related files.
The Brain joined us in 1996 (with the help of Chris). He wrote one of the first working Super Nintendo Emulators known as Virtual SuperMagiCom (VSMC) and released it under the Damaged Cybernetics Label.
In mid-1996 in retaliation to Compress Da Audio (CDA) (first mp3 piracy group) ideals of keeping mp3 tools and how-to's a secret. Damaged Cybernetics spawned off a small sub-group, Digital Audio Crew (DAC), to counteract. Both groups worked together, DAC releasing mp3 titles over various ftp sites and irc networks, and Damaged Cybernetics dedicate a portion of their website dedicated to audio piracy; tools, faqs, how-to's. This portion of the site was maintained by Namkrad. Under the DC Label, Namkrad contributed the mp3 ID3 tagging format, which is used by all mp3 players today.
There are other members and other accomplishments, but pointless to even acknowledge, if ppl like the person i'm replying to, thinks he knows all and is all that... and i quote:
"The problem with the emulation crowd is it tends to attract the younger-pirate because I'm kool-crowd."
