Several devs are freaking out. And some are even deleting all their stuff. Which is kind of weird since if the feds would go after them they probably already have evidence since they felt they had enough to go after one already. It’s not like the feds just stumbled across a random devs house. They would have been investing this, probably for months. So deleting all their stuff now won’t get rid of it as a record and only makes them look guilty. Better to either get out of Dodge or hire a good lawyer instead of spending time deleting stuff. And many of them have more than enough monthly income to move to other places if they live in Australia. They could even move to another commonwealth country, like Canada or the UK, makes it easier to relocate. But as long as they are somewhere with internet they can do their work. And if they don’t live in Australia then they don’t need to worry unless their home country has similar laws in which case either moving or upping internet security are the two best practices. But none of this constitutes legal advice as I am not an attorney, nor is it meant to belittle the situation. I understand the freak out, just that snap reaction usually aren’t the most productive or beneficial things to do.I think people are overreacting a little bit. Unless you also live in australia or if you're in a country that has similar dogshit laws, there is really no reason to remove that content. Also since you are already doing different versions of the game anyway, if you don't feel confident about having it on SS. Just make a patch with all the taboo content and post it outside of SS. With that content removed I feel like a lot of people will just lose interest. But at the end of the day it's your game and you have to do what makes you feel safer.
