Comment on Former Valve writer says PlayStation killing physical discs is no conspiracy: "You, the consumer, have made your choice, and the choice is for digital"

LOL what? This is some „your carbon footprint“ level horseshit. It‘s like saying you the consumer chose global warming or to lose your job to automation. I mean, did you choose to live near a data center that was build last month? I didn‘t think so either.

We‘re not one tightly organized mass making decisions with far reaching consequences together as consumers. Providers on the other hand practice price-fixing and lobbying in an organized manner. That‘s where I would start pointing my finger at to explain this mess.

I, the consumer are terribly powerless. Only we, the people can change these things for the better by gutting these corporations.

Inf act some of us chose NOT to live next to the data center and they built the fucker anyway.

Agree with all points.

eventually an internal document will leak that details how sony colluded with other corporations and orchestrated the whole thing but it will be like big oil’s climate research where even though they knew first and covered it up, its all our fault and we are responsible for fixing it while they continue to make it worse faster than we could possibly handle

Yet older generations get blamed for causing the climate crisis.
