some guy gets a ton of pinball machines but he can't do shit with a bunch of pinball machines except show them off when his friends/family come over and have them play, so he'll start a barcade/retro arcade and everyone in town shows up to play some Whirlwind or something

You should see all the old FSF interviews and documentaries from around that time. There main talking point was "sharing is caring". Like I'm not a big fan of intellectual property either, but I don't think that sharing copies is the most important thing in the world.

That's when everyone began to get worried. Especially as the big impact of Edward Snowden's leaks wasn't that people began to give a shit about online privacy (of course they didn't), but tech companies began to start things like using HTTPS everywhere and forcing the web onto it, as in the pre-Snowden era you could still browse most of the web in HTTP.
But stuff like MS-DOS was a pain to get internet/networking in (TSRs and drivers anyone?), and even now the servers that any old software would phone into are probably long since shut down mostly.

I'm not joking, I knew a Mac Enjoyer who had game consoles for gaming after Mac gaming died off in the 2000s (he had lots of Feral/Aspyr/Macsoft ports in big box).
Laugh all you want but there was a time when Macs had ports and the SS1 Mac port was the only one they could find the source code for even!
