Bought a Bluray Disc. Sony still tracks you.

Tried to support the industry by buying a movie a watch a lot. Well, no more. If I need a pihole just to watch a movie I own, that's ridiculous.

I wonder if these people think everyone wants to be advertised to.

No, I am 100% certain they know that the vast majority of people don’t care and some people really really hate it, but nobody actually enjoys it.

Someone I know who is currently on a pseudoscience and conspiracy theory arc genuinely believes that personalized ads are good because then you can easily buy things you know you'll like

VLC on a Linux laptop. You think my Blu-ray player has the ability to take screenshots?

HDCP is easy to bypass. Almost laughable really, there are tons of "Splitters" and Strippers on the market. I've also seem a few totally legal capture cards that can read it directly.

Never say never. Especially since we're only in the beginning of the AI era, AI de-compilation is starting to become feasible, AI cracking probably will too.

I’m still getting justified in my boycott of anything Sony that started in 2005, when they bricked my PC for daring to put a Sony CD in my computer’s CD player! Fucking rootkit.
Yes I’m still holding that grudge and I will not relent, for as long as I live.
Any movie I watch I make sure it’s not a Sony product, any music I listen to, I make doubly sure it’s not from a Sony studio. Any electronics I buy, I make triply sure it doesn’t contain any Sony product. Sony is not getting a dime from me ever again!
Fuck Sony!

That rootkit thing failed miserably, thankfully, and audio CDs have been DRM-free ever since.

That's going to discount most of the camera market if not the entire camera market then because Sony makes basically everyone's imaging sensors, plus a large portion of the anime genre given that company bought out Funimation.

The problem is every company is a Sony now.
So you have to buy from your least hated Sony. You can't just boycott Sony.

I've bought things from personalized ads before. But mostly they're annoying. And creepy.
