minus-squarepinball_wizard@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up22arrow-down2·edit-221 hours ago This particular community loves to play the paranoid victim, which is unfortunate. I agree, but Sony literally helped invent DRM. Sony went all-in on “fuck you” to their customers back when we all adored them for the Walkman. And it feels like they have only rarely done better, since then, after exhausting all other options. So I agree - we do jump there too quick. But when we are discussing Sony, the ire is valid anyway. Everyone at Sony can go fuck themselves - today, yesterday and just generally.
