All projects should be.

Move to Codeberg (esp. if you're European) - but please don't forget to donate something as well. If we don't pay for actual freedom, we won't be able to keep it.

Same here, although even earlier. As a family of five Sony's horribly bad game sharing within the family if you have more than one PS5 (we do) has sealed the deal for us. I've just built up two Bazzite-based Steamboxes and that's going to be our couchgaming from now on.

No PS6.

I could definitely see myself setting up a Wireguard VPN only allowing connections to a bunch of porn sites here on my home fiber in Sweden. Should make a nice little side profit.

Apple would lose such a case in an instant. EU consumer protections applies to the consumer for products bought from a seller within the EU. The laws do not care the slightest whether you're using your devices on vacation or not.

No. That EU-citizen is fully protected by EU consumer laws. Has nothing to do with where that citizen make use of their product.

I've linked to two different instances of people talking about it, there are of course many more. Thus why I asked you how big this conspiracy of yours would be for all of them to be lying.

What do you see when reading this?

That's ... not how it works. If they did brick the consoles Europeans own they'd likely be breaking EU wide laws, which at the end would end up with the highest court in Europe - the EUCJ.

There's nothing arbitrarily about this. Our consumer protection laws are quite strong.

Sure, I can't really understand myself why I wrote Pedro Pascal instead of Diego Luna - but it doesn't change the point of the post whatsoever tbh.

"litigation" is not really how we usually talk about consumer's rights in Europe though. As the article clearly states:

the legal framework in Europe is much more protective of users. The corresponding laws understand that disabling a device for unauthorized access to software is an excessive and illegal measure.

(afaik Pedro Pascal isn't a black woman but maybe I'm out of the loop)

It's very important to you that the claims about racism and misogyni aren't true, correct? Why?

How big is this conspiracy of yours?
