Only if they still sell the assets.
I'm in favour of also dropping any copyright and intellectual property protections the moment a company stops selling the game. They evidently have no more commercial aspirations for the title, so it doesn't need any protection from technically feasible copy protection circumvention methods.

Amity doesn't fly regularly. And not those high-G maneuvers.

Yea, people mostly equate email to an electronic letter, but it's more like an electronic postcard. Anyone handling it can simply read it.
So you'll want encryption, too. So either you get everyone to use PGP/GPG or get them to use a privacy-by-default provider.
Good luck with the first option and I'm not sure how interoperable the various providers are, so in the worst case you'd have to rally everyone to the same provider.

Camera and baseband seem to be the general pain points. Somewhat unsurprisingly, given that both are complicated black box devices.

Yup

The storage requirements might be ever so slightly prohibitive.

It's not about being helpful in the sense of just answering the question at hand. If OP just wanted the question answered they can just Google it. Instead I wanted to offer an alternative, low risk solution.
While Ubisoft, EA and consorts can easily stomach some piracy and still crank out "AAA" titles in a 6-months interval, it hurts small studios relatively more. Buying and returning, on the other hand, offers a way to give feedback to the studio via the return reason and costs just as little as piracy.

I'm not saying it was always the case. Back when ads were just images hosted on the same machine as the rest of the page they were only annoying.
But nowadays even so-called acceptable ads are delivered by third-party servers. So suddenly you have to trust not only the operator of the page you're visiting but also any advertising partners they use. And since all modern advertising uses a gazillion of metrics that necessitates JavaScript you end up executing code that neither you nor the page operator have any actual need for nor influence on, hoping that the ad network has some sort of vetting process so they don't end up unwittingly delivering malware.
That's a tall order in my opinion.

ProtonDB says it's decent, the game is Steamdeck verified plus you can return it with under two hours playtime, so I'd just buy it.
Any upgrade path with a pirated version should be completely irrelevant.

All ads are a cybersecurity risk, not just the targeted ones. The targeted ones just offer new and exciting vectors.

Yup. You can pay Netflix for 4K, but you can only get 4K with Edge on Windows and even then only if you have the right hardware. Like, what's the point? On Linux you can only get 1080p by spoofing your just agent. Otherwise they only give you 720p.

Yea, that's just plain stupid of them. I don't know how they expected that to go over.

Oh yes, I bought that content, but sure, take it away. I totally understand that the licensing changed.
