>>46127129>Assuming it's against the ToS of Diablo II, it would be illegal, but it would would be a civil issue, not a criminal offense so you can't be arrested for it (at least in North America).It wasn't against the TOS, but to dodge any potential copyright issues the eBay sellers would say you were purchasing the labor of grinding the item for yourself.

>>46127096I know a little about Japan's copyright based on what I see in /a/, and the nips with their cancerous mentality are trying to create artificial scarcity or artificial harm by equating digital products with real-life products that have material costs associated with them. Like hacking is considered illegal there because the code that makes up a game is considered GameFreak's IP. which is bullshit when you're using a language created and owned by Oracle, and US copyright laws do not consider OS software as IP. There were legal cases of John Deere trying to sue farmers for trying to hack their equipment because, guess what, farmers don't want to spend $200,000 to buy a new tractor because their EMMC failed.
At any rate, if you look at how Japan is trying to take advantage of its gambling autism with gacha, which basically destroyed visual novels, and pachinko as access to high res animation and CGs, it's clear they want to create a digital economy that's as tightly shut as a saudi princess vagina. which is the epitome of anti-consumer cancer and faggotry
