"... they now wait for this storm to pass." Fantastic analogy, let me continue it Dr. Toto but in the right direction. You see, some storms have very, very high winds. You might know them as "Typhoons." They tend to flatten structures and require decades of rebuilding. Get it?

Meta is removing Instagram’s latest AI feature following a negative response from users: “Earlier this week, we announced that one way for people to generate images in Meta AI is by @-mentioning public Instagram accounts that they want to reference. Our intent was to provide a useful creative tool and to give people control over whether their public content could be referenced in this way. We've heard the feedback that this feature missed the mark, so it's no longer available.”

Less than 2 days later and I've been proven right, No spine, yall are hopeless

لو استطاع المحاكي تشغيل GTA6 عليه في وقت أبكر بعد إطلاقها بتكون كارثة على ROCKSTAR وخطتها في البيع المزدوج وتضطر تنزل نسخة PC خلال أسابيع، قد تكون السبب خلف سرعة تطور المحاكي بهذه الوتيرة السريعة

Sony and Playstation doesn't care about you, they want physical discs gone. They will keep ignoring fans and not care. But there are things they will HAVE TO CARE about: I have done a lot of research and got help from a lot of people to find out all this info, so please read and try to understand all this. There is no reason to argue with each other, no rage or anything like that will actually do anything. But reading and understanding how things work might: Right now, a Dutch group is suing Sony for €400 million in the "Fair PlayStation" lawsuit on behalf of 1.7 million gamers. Their argument is that Sony controls basically all digital game sales on PlayStation and charges a 30% "Sony Tax". According to their research, digital games are around 47% more expensive than physical ones. Sony’s decision to stop physical disc production in 2028 strengthens their case, because it removes the used game market and leaves gamers with almost no real alternative to Sony’s store. Even if this Dutch case doesn’t fully win on its own, it still matters. If the court finds Sony is abusing its dominant position, it gives the EU Commission strong evidence to open their own investigation under antitrust rules. Under EU competition law, the Commission can fine Sony heavily and force remedies so for example by making them allow competing digital stores on PlayStation! So what can we actually do, since Sony clearly doesn’t care if they lose fans over this? - If you own a business that will be hurt by this (like a game shop), go to the EU Commission’s competition website and file a Form C. This is an official complaint that forces them to look into how Sony is affecting your business! - Keep buying physical copies at launch when possible. The more physical sales there are, the harder it is for Sony to claim “nobody wants discs anymore”. - Sign the “Don’t Kill the Disc” petition on Change org. Big signature numbers are used as proof of consumer harm in these cases. (links under post) - Support the Stop Killing Games movement. It’s pushing for better consumer rights around game ownership. Being angry on its own won’t do much. The goal is to create an official paper trail so EU antitrust regulators actually pay attention and take action. This is legit the only way something will change, sony is willing to lose fans over this. Since being all digital for them will be worth it long term!
