    Isn’t this comparable to utilities you buy for smoking weed (talking about countries where it is still illegal) like a bong or a special grinder? They are only really used for doing something illegal but it is still legal to buy them.

      I’m sure you’re right, but IANAL. The only stuff that could be banned under this principle are precursors. Emulators aren’t a means to piracy, they are a tool that could be used with pirated material.
