Amazing. Their leader was busted a long time ago so I thought they were toast. Razor, Class, Fairlight, and some others hold a special place in my heart. (I know nothing of their politics)
To be fair, a lot of those groups aren't any of the same people today.
Fairlight was pretty problematic back in the 90's politically, they even did a fairly controversial nazi-themed demo. Definitely not the vibe they give off today.
Article for reference [0]. It's amazing how far people's baggage will follow them (though the impact here is probably minimal). Wild that a former Fairlight member became San Diego Republican Party Chairman.
It wasn't always that clear who the members were. Demos and cracks across several machine types were handled by separate people who didn't always know each other.
Especially Fairlight was a pretty loose group which many people were sort of affiliated with, and sometimes would release stuff under that name, and nobody really knew if they were officially members or not. There was a bit of drama as everyone didn't always get along.
Sorry for the lazy question, but would you be able to share some links or pointers to where these guys are active? I've been out of the loop for a few decades but enjoyed the scene when I was a teenager.
Nowadays though it's just Empress and everyone else, because Empress is the only one who cares enough to crack Denuvo, but only for selected games, and nothing recently.
