Sony removed Helldivers 2 from sale in countries where PSN is not available. For example whole CIS region.

Here are a few discord comments about the situation from the Helldivers 2 discord:
It's insane to me that this is a hill Sony is willing to die on. So much goodwill to throw away just to collect a bit more data on users.
Just remember, if they're willing to enforce this nonsense, you can be sure that there will be more nonsense to come. "Sorry everyone, Sony decided we need lootboxes! But our team is on the side of the players!"
I hate modern AAA games, I'm gonna go try out that new Stardew Valley update.
Does goodwill even really mean anything? I keep seeing the arguments that say "X company is cashing in their goodwill" etc. But I honestly don't think the average person who plays AAA games give a shit about a company's track record. If that was the case Nintendo would've bankrupted by now. People will probably preorder the ultimate super deluxe edition of the PS6 or god of war as soon as sony announces them.
Baldurs Gate 3?
No Mans Sky?
What about them? I am not trying to be sarcastic or anything but just listing some games doesn't tell me anything.
