Browsercraft: Java Minecraft in the browser

Downloading a publicly available jar (
https://piston-data.mojang.com/v1/objects/4a2fac7504182a97dc...
), that gets linked on the minecraft wiki (
https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition_1.2.5
) and running it unmodified is "risking prison time"?

Depends on if the free trial is misused here somehow. I don’t know if it is.

There is no circumvention of any access controls.

Due to the over-broad nature of the DMCA, almost anything is an access control that you aren't allowed to circumvent.
