Greetings, esteemed AUR team,

I wish to draw your attention to a matter brought forth by the
individual known as MarsSeed, who has seen fit to initiate a petition
for the removal of this repository based upon two distinct
contentions:

1. Alleged Illegality
2. Ostensible Lack of License for Software Dispensation

Allow me the privilege of counterarguing as follows:

Regarding Point 1: The assertion of software illegality, as posited by
the user MarsSeed, merits elucidation. It is crucial to clarify that
the creation of software designed for the facilitation of game backup
procedures per se is not inherently illegal. Rather, the transgression
resides in the act of disseminating said software sans authorization
from the copyright holder. Furthermore, it is imperative to underscore
that the party with the rightful standing to assert grievance on
account of this software's ostensible implications would be none other
than the original authors of the games in question. It is incumbent
upon them to furnish substantiated evidence of perceived harm and
subsequently resort to the judicial realm, rather than invoking the
jurisdiction of AUR.

Regarding Point 2: MarsSeed's contention with regard to the purported
copyright safeguarding of the original source code by virtue of
Seacrest's failure to explicitly extend a license warrants
examination. It is incumbent upon me to dispel this notion as
misconceived. The categorization of the source code as protected under
the aegis of copyright is contingent upon the nuanced interpretation
of legal statutes as applicable within the geographical confines of
the jurisdiction. It follows, therefore, that the solitary party
endowed with the requisite authority to raise such a contention would
be none other than the very progenitor of said code, namely Seacrest.

I extend my gratitude for your esteemed consideration of this
discourse.

Sincerely,

Bakasura
