In the legal sense that having DRM-free software does not mean that you're legally entitled to use it, sure.

But checking for a license before running is literally the entire definition of what DRM is. They aren't "bypassing" anything. They didn't create technology. They simply refused to allow software that has any type of license check (DRM).

Never said they created a technology. Sorry you didnt like my choice of words.

They didn't create anything of any type. They just declined games that didn't follow their rules.
