Yes, but it is also a bit scary / dystopian that a $62 billion company would go to such great lengths to have one of their own customers thrown in jail for using the product that he paid for in a way that wasn't hurting anyone.

You might want to look into what this dude was actually doing because he was really stupid. On like over a dozen occasions, he live streamed leaked games, days to weeks before their release.

He also sent Nintendo messages taunting them.

Dude deserves it.

Welcome to the mundane, realistic cyberpunk dystopia, hope you paid attention to more than the flashy surface level marketing.

Don’t do shit for money. It has always been that way.

Hardly dystopian. They just had someone who understands how tech works on staff.
