I my experience the people running large companies are idiots who got their position by brown nosing the right people so it doesn’t really surprise me. Google is pretty well known too for coming up with stupid ideas they scrap in a few years

Not can but is willing to. Denuvo’s legal team is going after anyone who reverse engineers any part of their DRM and they have gotten a lot of groups to back off. Empress is in Russia so she won’t face any consequences unless she pisses off any of the Russian oligarchs, which also means she probably will never crack Atomic Heart but then again she is crazy.

Every other group got legal action taken against them so they stopped cracking denuvo, Empress doesn’t care since she’s in Russia. Denuvo’s legal team is more competent than their developers unfortunately.
