Topic	wow you aren't allowed to talk about a game before the game releases apparently

Receiving or buying early as a consumer is just a bit of luck and I cannot see why a country's law would punish you for that. That is not how copyright works at all. The owner of the copyright has the sole ability to decide how, when, and if someone has the right to use their product. If the owner of the copyright doesn't want you distributing a game until a certain date, and you do it anyway, that is a breach of the copyright. Same goes for the consumer, but it rarely is worth the legal trouble to go after them unless in extreme circumstances. --- My bookshelf: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/152760030 Comics: https://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/profile/dikitain <cite>Dikitain posted [p:973216047] in wow you ar...
