You commented which is worse. It's futile to hide, the popo is on their way.

Wouldn't be surprised if Bolsonaro had gotten pocketed a kickback from MS to quietly remove that law's teeth.

Used to have? Not anymore?

Of course. If you upset the overlords, you don't deserve to live. But they wouldn't admit it publicly (for now), so they go the roundabout way. Next, they could cut off your electricity too, maybe ask your bank to freeze your account, cancel your cards, oh and maybe Sony can take over your house too.

Not just that, but around the same time we saw significant service fragmentation and price hikes.

The dumb take is that this is a bad idea because you might damage the card. That's silly because that's just the trade off of portability.

Yes, and did you read wha ti said?... I agree with what you just said. The positive of physical card is that you can lend them. I still think it's a horrible product, and I'm afraid this will be the end of physical games.

That's a really dumb take. That's just the downside of physical media.

The real problem of this is just the same as the digital games. Once the Nintendo switch store inevitably goes offline like the Wii and 3DS, your key card becomes useless e-waste no matter how good you care for it.

If you think the average person understands watts, you live in a bubble, straight and simple. You have a very skewed notion of the average person.

How can you outlaw something a company in another conhtinent is doing? And specially when they are becoming better as disguising themselves as normal traffic? What will happen is that politicians will see this as another reason to push for everyone having their ID associated with their Internet traffic.

No publicity is bad publicity I guess?

I thought the same. And watching the second video it's still impressive, but much more realistic.

Also, once solution to avoid having so many cables: the batteries last just enough for the promotional video.
