I’m not really a gamer, so I’m really not fully sure what you are getting at. I just hope you experienced some kind of catharsis with this comment that will help you continue to live your best life as a Chill Dude. Heh, 69.
The tldr version = people are blowing a gasket, because a game published by Sony is requiring people to create a free account for their online gaming service, even if they bought the game through Steam (the Steam platform has nothing to do with Sony).
I hold the opinion that it’s not any kind of a big fucking deal to spend 120 seconds giving Sony an email address that you only use for making free web accounts.
Other people are choosing to absolutely lose their fucking minds, talkin’ about boycotting and whatever. And calling me a corporate shill.
Yes, I would advise to simply disregard these individuals and/or focus on spreading the gospel of how best to make throwaway email accounts. Don’t blow your own gasket! We need more Chill Dudes, not less.
Absolutely good advice. In fact, I’d just replied to another person, basically outlining how a consistent plan to only give out throwaway email addresses could change everything, by making those vast collections of email addresses worthless, on the corporate data-trading market.
This doesn’t apply worldwide, but to put some stuff in perspective privacy-wise: in the UK you need to go through age verification to create an adult PSN account, kinda hard to stay anonymous, and I’m not sure how much data Sony retains.

They’re mostly kids, I assume.
