It explains the project and its motivations. It's been a while since I read it (2019), but at the time I found it really fascinating and inspiring.

Zach, here. There's actually an open source project called Sigrok that's compatible with a ton of logic analyzers, including the one-chip knockoffs from China.

Your second scenario sounds pretty cyberpunk too! I'd certainly love it if more people purchased our games, but piracy is unavoidable. I'd rather have a Russian 12-year-old pirate our games than never get a chance to play them.

Absolutely! Are there any games you'd like to see in particular?
