"it's all just for your protection!" I'm amazed that people actually believe this shit. That's the same argument as with various countries fighting against CSAM, seeing that as an excuse for total privacy invasion. Like come on...

No one believes it, but in the world of PR you just go with the thing people are least likely to argue against or most likely believe "for the children" or "because safety". PR doesn't really even matter when you're so enormous.

I never gamed on console because I like more control over my environment...and that started 25 years ago. Super glad they were just approved to buy Activision/Blizzard, "more choice" was what their grinning exec said in a consolidation purchase.
