So I wonder what my copy from rockstar will do now, it worked like a week ago under wine(single player). I bought it before it was available on steam unfortunately.

That said gta online was never good so idgaf about that part but Battle eye isnt going to do shit so sucks for those that do care.

Cat8 is pointless with gigabit equipment as far as speed goes. Cat6 will do 10gig, you just had bad cables.

Their terms require a phone so yes, on their terms. Why would they make an exception for anyone?

Their captive portal requires wifi and thats all that matters. And why would they want to deal with paper agreements for WiFi?

You don’t have to be a member to use WiFi, someone else could have given you the password if there even is one, so ya even if you did agree when signing up it would make sense to still require that.

I implement these kind of setups including a couple libraries and while I would have Ethernet ports available if within budget, I would not allow you to bypass captive portal, the agreement, or traffic filtering. I don’t care what you are doing but I am required to try not to allow easy access to questionable content. If someone is doing something illegal it’s gonna involve the library if you get caught (that’s why the phone number but maybe they are just being shitty with it). Not worth the risk. Also a lot of those decisions are made by a board so being upset with the staff won’t accomplish anything. Wifi is cheap, pulling cable can be very costly in comparison and depending on building type can be hard, damaging or, not feasible. Those ports could also be broken because people don’t respect shit, that could also be the reason for their reaction.

This is all I got for you, good luck but if you want your privacy you’re likely going to have to go somewhere else.

You can use it but on their terms. Your privacy doesnt mean anything to them, they are protecting themselves. Captive portal is likely making you agree to not abuse the service.

Also you’re choosing not to participate which is fair but they don’t need to support that.

He doesn’t have to do fuck all. Of all the game developers he doesn’t owe anyone shit. He made an amazing game that was his personal project then continued to support it for years when he didn’t have to and never charged for added content. If you have a problem with the game that bad then find another one. Vote with your wallet. That said fuck the doxxers, everyone involved is just being shitty.
