based on this I'm assuming he means they're going to take minecraft.net down meaning the login servers, otherwise it'd be a worthless gesture, nobody would know (besides Mojangs bank account)
Legally I don’t think this is a problem. The login servers are not needed to play Minecraft. Singleplayer obviously works without them. Multiplayer does, too, but servers can (and in practice do) require you to be logged in.
Morally? I don’t know. I don’t think so. People might disagree.
