No. Sony has a history of really fucking with people’s PC’s. Look into what they did with installing a rootkit on people’s computers in 2005. Also, do you have any idea how many launchers/DRM/anti-cheat software you would have on your system if gamers did not push back on companies at all? It would be like the 2000’s IE toolbar fiasco all over again.

Installing a rootkit on people’s computers in 2005.

Not to downplay the shitty situation with hd2, but uh, got any examples from the last 5 to 10 years instead of pointing to something that happened nearly two decades ago?

No, I haven’t looked. Why? Do you think the business truly learned from their “mistake” and will do better by their customers? hahaha

I assume they ask because software security and stability has generally improved over the last 20 years.
