There are probably workarounds sure, but they shouldn’t be the default. Keep up the pressure on these suits so they know what their stupid decisions cause

Can’t you make a free PSN account from any country? I know people in countries with no PSN using US PSN account, without any VPN or anything. You just set your country to US, or UK.

Workarounds get banned. So PSN gets to keep your money but also denies you the product that you bought.

If buying isn’t owning, the high seas isn’t stealing. Drink up me hearties yo fucking ho.

I agree, but that doesn’t apply to multiplayer with server side verification and matchmaking. It’s notoriously difficult, nay impossible to pirate exclusively multiplayer games.

Yes you could. Then you Break TOS and Ban you, so still you cant play. Thats the issue (and ofc dataleaks every year)

Well, 3 data leaks in the last 10 years, at least one of which wasn’t their fault at all. This change is bad for several reasons but “data leaks” isn’t really one of them.
