How do you back up a game with DRM if said DRM stops working though?

GOG guarantees this will not be an issue. Hell, there even are/were Securom games on Steam. You won't be activating those anymore.

The secret ingredient is crime.

Games with DRM aren't on GOG, but games without DRM are on Steam.

Or you can just pirate it in the first place if you're gonna do that anyway lol
