    Ahh, it’s been ten thousand years since a multibillion company walked back from simple but bad decision.

      I just wonder if they’ll leave it at this or find a way to roll it out slowly and silently in some places anyway. I certainly hope they genuinly learned from this.

      Yeah, this and the completely over-the-top kernel level anticheat rootkit for a PvE game really turned me off.

    If they tried it once, they’ll try it again.

    Some of us have had managers like this: implement something dumb, walk it back, try again every 15 months.

    Welp, this is how you’re supposed to deescalate a situation. Not by having a CM slandering a public figure that spoke against this.

    That’s a good move. Simple and to the point.

    Likely they won’t make this a requirement… But will of you want to do crossplay.
