    I don’t buy this. It’s easy to upload files anonymously.

        They can’t gain recognition, uploading anonymously. But if someone purely wants the crack for the game to exist they could do it

            Do people create mods for games or create open source software solely for recognition?

                You’re missing the point I’ve made completely.

                  My point is that a contributor to open source software can contribute just to help people because they don’t have to worry about legal repercussions.

                    Being anonymous isn’t incompatible with helping people
