@gamingonlinux I immediately imagined a modified screenshot of Zelda 1: An old pixelized man (who looks like Hiroki Totoki) in a cave says: "It's dangerous to play alone! Take this." Instead of a sword, it's a little box that says "PSN" A pixelized version of Aloy is at the bottom, hesitating. @gamingonlinux safety and joy is oxymoronic, but yeah it makes sense where the law forces you to be a moderator @gamingonlinux "Safely", wow, seriously, it's just to steal all info they can about the user. @gamingonlinux guess the only thing that'll stay safe because of this will be my account balance... @gamingonlinux Sony don't need to be worried, I'm enjoying their games safely, fully offline, not even connected to Steam 😉 @gamingonlinux Ok so they could make that argument for live service and multiplayer games, but why in the seven hells is it required for single player games 😑 @gamingonlinux I laugh out loud when they peddle this shit. My character on GTA Online has been a woman (and often of colour) since forever, well before I moved from PS4 to PC. I *never* got as many abusive text messages as I got on PS4. I figured I could act as a lightning rod (what caused me to play a black character in the first place) and report all the abuse, and a few weeks into it I got a message saying excessive reporting was grounds for a suspension. :blobcattableflip: PSN is unsafe! @gamingonlinux It's obvious the overlay and trophies synchronization is a coverup for their DRM and anti-tamper. Last time I checked SDKs like that don't need a rootkit. @gamingonlinux pretty sure I'm safer not buying any more Sony games and not uploading a scan of my id and/or selfie to them and a 3rd party agent they use for processing... |

I don't care what Sony says, they are on my boycott list for a reason.
