I agree with anti cheat in video games. 100% spyware designed as video games. I always install games like that on my PlayStation(lol)

However, the united states government did the Alabama Syphilis Experiment (that they like to refer to as the town it was in, Tuskegee so you think it was some far off place when you look at the name) and I straight up wouldn't ever trust their ass again either. (Shit, MK Ultra, Agent Orange the verified list goes on and on)

Different situation for sure, but same energy. The lack of caring and lack of any repercussions cause these types of things to happen over and over again.

Sony definitely knew what was going on during that shit. They were pissed that you'd burn your friends CD and get to sell copies of it at school and shit.

And yes I do use a PlayStation only as a anti cheat gaming device and would never put any information into it I wouldn't want 800+ companies to know about. They get hacked all the fucking time so I have a card that doesn't even work as the payment method listed and just use gift cards.

Because I don't trust them all the way. And that rootkit bullshit will always be why. You make it sound like they didn't know. No sir, check out the wiki and all the bullshit covering up of it they tried to do.

Oh don't worry, with Sony's history I'm sure it'll be around $2500.

Exaggerating of course but they do tend to put the top premium dollar amount on all their phones. Even if other brands phones have better specs you can probably bet the Sony will be more expensive.

If only there was an understood way to convey sarcasm.

They tried bitcoin. And also fraud was a concern too.

With Monero, fees are minimal and there's no possible way to prove fraud thus if you KYCd youd be breaking no laws and it would work quite well. The volatility is still a factor though for sure.

Stablecoins exist but ETH also has large fees at certain times like btc so and other chains like Polygon are trash and not as secure.

Volatility is a factor, but using a different crypto than Bitcoin is necessary to avoid high fees and stolen coins

You mean that annoying shit they do where I'm trying to move one tab and it puts it in a colored square with some bullshit?

Yeah there was NO WAY TO AVOID THAT. It straight up did that shit on its own. Like literally it almost magnetically attracted itself to the other tab to pull this shit. It effectively activates it for you this way whether you want it or not.

Man even Firefox is starting to shit the bed with their decision making.

Is it possible for us the people to do it then? How do you organize something like a class action lawsuit against a big player like that?

They JUST finished paying out the 5.5 Billion in a class action lawsuit they've already lost before so we can for sure do it again, right?

Monopolies are good for the consumer?

Respectfully, what the fuck are you talking about. That has never been true ever.

As much as everyone here hates it literally the only way to ever do that is cryptocurrency unless you receive precious metals in the mail.

Man wtf can we DO about this shit? I'm planning on calling and shit but damn they don't give a fuck.

Is it too late??

Do you have to have assloads of money to file a class action suit? Like would steam or GOG or itch be down to be a part of it or is that just a pipe dream.

I am not promoting it, but I will say that this is the exact reason shit like cryptocurrency exists. Stupid overreaching shit like this.
