The worst bit about eula is the greedy morons, oh you don't actually own the thing are buying... Then drop dead or make it cheaper than physical items and then discount it after that because I don't care what drugs you're on if a physical game is 59.99 because of development, production, exporting because they would rather pollute the world than do thing locally and profit then if digital take almost all of that out of the equation then it should be cheaper, then why is it not because they're thick and greedy.

I can give you an even better example than any presented here. Of course this was produced 3 years ago but here goes anyway. When you purchase an Amazon device with a screen such as the Echo Show you don’t own it. Yes you paid for it but it’s shared between you and Amazon. For instance you have very little control over what’s being displayed on your screen. No matter how many settings you choose to limit what’s being shown there is no way to stop Amazon from displaying their “card” screen which is built into the software. It will show you exactly what they want including advertisements in the way of “sponsored” ads. This detail is the number one complaint across the Reddit community. After a 30 minute conversation with Amazon they simply refuse to remove this feature. And you need to include Massey Ferguson tractors as they don’t even let you repair any of the non technical parts. It all has to be done by the dealership.

@BobRooney290 May 18, 2024 - 7:54 pm
you forget the wrench thrown in their gear, the hacker and cracker. there are so many mods out there that take the power away from these trillion dollar companies and place it back in the hands of normal people. you can easily find roms for your phone, giving you back the functionality you want.
@mattlenardson6567 May 18, 2024 - 7:54 pm
Yeah if I think that everyday people like contractors make customers sign paper work that if the project they worked on has an issue years from the date of completion that they would have to use the primary contractor and it’s subs to repair and/or replace the project. Such as a roof that has out lived it’s life expectancy has to be repaired or put new by the the primary contractor and it’s subs. I would love to see all the scum bags from big tech come back and say that’s not fair. Because as we all know do as I say not as do is the only argument the lawyers can come up with.

@senpaiisofty4393 May 18, 2024 - 7:54 pm
This reminds me of the whole ‘master lock’ thing that PC supposedly has for online/steam games. The lock is meant to have a ‘key’ that opens these things so players can play these games even after the site/service is shut down, but companies have never released them because they want people to keep on paying for the service. Which has caused many online games to completely vanish and be locked away forever…and it’s believed that the same will happen with Steam and its games.

If Steam were to release the ‘key’ at any point, it would allow us to access the games we’ve already bought and the servers. But if they don’t, all those games and online services will be gone once Steam ends.

This is why some literal jerk off trolls me online and stalks me in person because of what I watch and comment on. They’re using the same immoral and illegal “surveillance “ on all citizens that’s being used overseas (in Korea and China) to spy on, manipulate and invade your personal real life. I refuse to live any place that does this and do plan on moving elsewhere. All of this is beyond bs. There’s no way to explain to anyone that what they do with this internet crap is normal or okay to do to anyone. If you don’t know how to write a letter to someone’s home address that’s on you because in a minute that’s the only way I’ll allow communication. We have nothing but a bunch of assholes trying to get us to buy something or the same assholes trying to sell us and any and everything they think is linked to us.

Recently, several of Sony's game consoles were found-out that when the internal battery dies, known as the CMOS battery, located on the console's motherboard, and then without an internet connection proceeding a battery dying to resync the time to Sony's servers, will then lock a player out of all PS4 games (and digital for certain with PS3/PS5 - physical will work on PS3, but still up in the air for PS5) and will not play, for both physical and digital copies.

Your disc, that you purchased at the store in-person or digital game you bought online, is not protected under the current laws, because it falls under a software agreement.

The game itself is still owned by the game companies and Sony has a disclosure in their agreement, that they do not have to guarantee any of the games will work on their consoles in the future, even if this is in-part, because of something pre-programmed on their part (such as requiring a time-sync to their servers to unlock the games).

Whether the company addresses/resolves this issue or not, is up to them, but this is just another word of a cautionary tale of the future we're in store from, when it comes to machinery and software, and rights to repair/play.

To note: Microsoft does a one-time authorization check on their current consoles, so they too, are no different, as there is no way around that issue without Microsoft's permission to play games you bought.

Also, for PC players... Steam has the same disclosure in their agreement, that if they shut-down their server, they don't have to reimburse anyone, as you're only paying to access the games through their online service.

Welcome to the future where you don't really own anything without their say-so.
