    Started? Oh sweet summers child, Sony has been making more in the life insurance raquet than anything else Sony makes for decades… and they are one of the few megacorps I still buy from.

      Dear God, why? Between the continuous pushing of proprietary formats and the fucking rootkit they inflicted on people via music CDs almost two decades ago, they were one of the first megacorps I started boycotting!

      I was never aware of that fact, as I never expected that Sony would be in on that kind of scheme! There’s too much going on and I simply can’t take it all in. However, this doesn’t surprise me as megacorps will do whatever it takes to make as much money as possible! Since buying power makes right (up until they get a firm slap on the wrist). 🥴
