Sony went on to say that it takes a “firm stance” against such behavior, which includes examples like “persistent and repeated, or prolonged, demands, excessive or unreasonable demands for compensation or apologies, and abusive language, threats, slander, and other similar behaviors.”

Other examples included “forcing someone to prostrate themselves” and “visiting our offices or related facilities without permission.” If any such behavior is confirmed, Sony says it may “restrict or suspend customer service” to protect its employees — and, if necessary, contact “police, lawyers, etc.” to take legal action or begin criminal proceedings against them.

    I’ve no idea what you’re on about now.

    The whole reason why SteamOS exists is because Microsoft introduced the Windows store with 8. It looked like at the time Microsoft was going to push that all software for the windows platform was going to have to go through their store.

    credit other people’s work to them

    Things like Proton, Fex, and SteamOS?

    shift the topic away

    I really don’t think you understand why people like Valve. I’ve explained it above, go back a reread my comments on gamers getting a real choice on running an operating system of their choosing.

    loss of another venue for ownership

    Again, reread my comment where I call it bullshit. It wouldn’t be a problem if there was another store from which to buy from.

    something not even GOG lets you do

    Well, no. GoG isn’t going to actively promote piracy. It isn’t going to stop them from telling you exactly what I told you to do though. Whatever you do with your copy is totally up to you.
