Bloomberg cites "those familiar with Sony's thinking", which is just another way of saying the writer pulled it out of his backside.

Quoting: Eike

Quoting: Mountain ManTo be fair, we're still far behind Europe where you can and will be arrested for posting "offensive" messages on social media.

You can be punished for say calling someone an a**hole. Not for stating an actual opinion. (You do not really believe that a person is a backside - it's not an opinion, it's all insult.) I fail to see a problem with that.

You clearly do not value freedom of speech. And it's gotten rather extreme. There was one instance where a woman who texted a friend and called the man who raped her a dog received a harsher punishment than her rapist.

Quoting: eddie-fossSorry for that but for me it seems that US is turning itself a kind of rich new North Korea, government surveillance, no freedom, imposed religion, beliefs and who is against will have their heads chopped off, very dystopian...
I hope you guys get back your power and put off the f..ing lobbyists out of government they're cancer to your country.
😤

To be fair, we're still far behind Europe where you can and will be arrested for posting "offensive" messages on social media. At least we still have our freedom of speech, although it seems the Democrat party wants to do something about that.

Leave it to California to come up with some of the worst ideas.

And to everyone saying, "This isn't so bad, I can accept this," remember, this legislation is not the end, it is the beginning!

To quote Benjamin Franklin: Those who would exchange essential liberties for a little temporary safety will have neither liberty nor safety.

$150,000 seems too small of a penalty. They should have added another zero.

Quoting: LinasWe will have to go back to tape drives and floppy disks soon.

At least until those sell out in the next few weeks.

Death Stranding 2! \o/

Although the deluxe edition looks entirely pointless. Not even an early access incentive, just some in-game collectibles.

Quoting: TheSHEEEP... but why?
Usually, malware has a specific purpose, monetary or data gathering or disrupting infrastructure.

This just messes with your mods and steam stats for a title.
Very annoying especially for modders, but beyond that I don't understand the motivation here.

Trolling.
