  There’s an analogy that Robert Heinlein liked regarding assassination

  It’s like shooting horses that can’t clear a jump until you get one that can

  Whole reimplementations have survived. IBM BIOS was the only original BIOS for PCs. Phoenix Technologies had a team read the source code for IBM BIOS (it was published in the user manual for troubleshooting) and wrote a specification for it which a different team wrote software from, making IBM compatible machines possible

  I don’t know what law an emulator could be killed under, unless a license holder breached the user license as part of the development
