We think that netflix, google, microsoft, amazon, and spotify etc are so convenient and cheap but they are pure evil.

Every dollar we spend on them will fund surveillance capitalism, data centers and private jets of billionaire pedophiles.

    The list was not intended to be in any particular order.

    Setting Valve aside for a moment, people used to think Sony wasn’t as bad as Microsoft. The truth is, they’ve always been worse. Big on exclusives and third-party exclusives, and opposed to cross-play and cross-progression, they’ve always been a company for shareholders first and gamers not even a distant second.

    But then you have all the Valve glazing. These guys used to make games. Then they stopped making games (except their multiplayer, loot box shit) so they could just sit back and sell other people’s games. Valve isn’t your friend. None of these companies are.

      I think the things that made Sony really bad was all the DRM shenanigans they pulled off. but all of these are not common knowledge I guess, the bad things Microsoft did/does appeared more in the press, and still do. all the while, Sony does not do much these days other than their locked down gaming console, do they?

      that’s right. However, the way I see it, they are doing the least of the bad things, and they are even contributing significantly to future I want to live in, in contrast to the other two. that’s something to consider.
