Fuck Gary Bowser and Team Xecuter in general, he doesn’t deserve the punishment he got but I feel no sympathy for him.

Read up on how they stole GPL’d code from other Switch hackers for their closed source SX OS, and then had the fucking nerve to charge for it.

Piracy is one thing, but what they did hurt the Switch hacking scene, for their own profit.

I wouldn't say no sympathy.

Gary suffers from Lymphedema in his left leg, starting just below the kneecap down to the ankle.

Lymphoedema is pretty awful, I feel bad for anyone living with it.
