Video games are huge, so it was only a matter of time before the totalitarians went after them. From Paul Joseph Watson at summit.news:
Enforcing “social justice in gaming” by tattling on your private conversations.
Sony has announced that it will allow Playstation users to record in-game voice chats so players can snitch on each other for mean words said during private conversations.
Yes, really.
The game console’s latest update forces users to waive their privacy rights, allowing others to report them and get their accounts banned for speech violations.
“Following this update, users are seeing a notification about Party Safety and that voice chats in parties may be recorded,” Sony announced. “Voice chat recording for moderation is a feature that will be available on PS5 when it launches, and will enable users to record their voice chats on PS5 and submit them for moderation review. The pop up you’re seeing on PS4 right now is to let you know that when you participate in a chat with a PS5 user (post-launch), they may submit those recordings from their PS5 console to SIE.”
