While I agree about the copyright to a extend, especially how it's outdated. And the hyporcrisy around the users here complaining to CDR despite romhacking is also a suspect.
Keep in mind that Romhacking was a thing for years, in the 90s to be exact.
And there were no incidents that revolves around DMCA a romhack, the only thing I know it's the case is how Nintendo strike down Pokemon Prism, but even then it's the exception rather than the norm.
In fact, Sonic Mania was made by the people who makes romhacks/fangames and a lot of them are made without Sega's permission, so take it as your will.
