Instead of "good guys", feels more like "drunk guys". They removed the games from everywhere, and even the moderators from GOG's forum, despite usually trying to be as silent as possible for any matters (specially thorny ones), seemed at loss when that happened. And now, out of the blue, EGS granted permission to use Internet Archive's uploads for the games.
