@X00001 #Nintendo kicking #Switch2 devices off their network for #ToS violations is one thing, and like the #Xbox360 that is justifyable.

  • However remotely #bricking devices is not, as Nintendo does not own these devices legally when they are rightfully sold to a consumer.

Even #Microsoft of all corporations knew that they cannot cross that line, and merely exclude #consoles from #Multiplayer and #Purchases but still allowing people to play their games.

I am not affected and most certainly won't buy a #NSW2 / #SW2 for that reason alone.

Thanks to @profstephenware.bsky.social for alerting me to the arbitration provision in Yahoo’s new terms of service. Cleverly designed to force claimants to choose between batch arbitration and individual court claims. An arbitration clause designed to prevent individual arbitration, which is precisely what the Federal Arbitration Act is supposed to facilitate!
