People don't even want you to play a video game in private now.

"Gibbons cut in: "They're illegal. They are not in any way affiliated with Microsoft. Microsoft, for Minecraft, has gotten a lot of criticism because of those community servers not employing the same safety standards that Microsoft does on their Minecraft servers."

I guess we need to take down Microsoft now. You see, they're using their site to distribute pirated games, constituting clear copyright infringement. You can get the server .jar from their minecraft.net site.
