      Seems easy enough to preserve old development files long enough to outlast the companies that own the IP. Just gotta not touch them for a decade or two and then "accidentally" find them.

              Whoops I zipped them up and put them in a few s3 buckets and kept it on my computer. Oh no, well, you know there's so much that goes in what do you expect.

                    Capitalism is evil and only makes the world worse for everyone in it. More on this story at the top of the hour, and now to the weather!

                      People wrote in to the Giant Bombcast before to say that they were ordered to destroy code and materials at studios that were going out of business, and they instead hid drives with the files in the drop ceiling on their way out.
