It's always the paying customers, who get absolutely shafted. Wouldn't be any other way, in modern society

Pirates never had Sony install a rootkit on their computer. Paying customers did, though.

Pirate here, can confirm.

Playing the new God of War was great on Linux, though.

Same with modern streaming services, you get awful resolutions on linux without them even telling you when you are a paying customer.

But the pirates get the full quality version no issue.
