If you buy a game, which you cannot use in single player mode, without internet access, you are signing up for this happening to you too, one day, guaranteed.

I mean, that's basically all AAA games in 2024. Even songs PC ports which historically avoided DRM and network requirements is starting to mandate PSN accounts. I 100% would prefer to be able to play offline, more often than not it's unwanted telemetry or BS bloat but that isn't something we as users can enforce.

At this point I'm afraid only government intervention would help (with citizens asking it to do so)

Buddy......government doesn't give a shit about video games. They got wars to start. People to exploit.

I think the department that protects consumers isn't busy with wars
