I always thought you were allowed to discuss them in practice, but could not name specific rom or emulator locations/names, much like post #3 just did.

Emulators are perfectly 100% legal

Sharing ROMs is a no no

But my understanding is ROMs are fine if you get them from a copy of the game you own

Why play Streets of Rage 2 on the genesis with another friend when you can play it with him via netplay?

Not quite that simple.

Also I posted about this, and Romhacks on Ask the Mods and they told me that any talk of any of it is technically against TOS.

If the emulator executable is virus-free you're good. There's no such thing as a virus-infected ROM (BIOS files included since they're technically also ROMs).

Don't run an executable that say it's going to install ROMs, though, obviously, since any executable can be infected.

Ok I misread your question. If it's a mobile app of course it's going to do sketchy shit.

It never shows up in my battery usage when I'm not using it. And it uses very little battery when I do use it, so I would imagine it isn't running anything too malicious against my will.

Yeah... I'm into that.

Retroarch would probably be the safest bet since it's open source. The menus are a mess though.
