Hey, just wanted to say I’m glad a few of us remember the rootkit fiasco. I still won’t buy Sony products today.
Same here. This was such a hostile move I never bought anything "Sony" after that.
Don't forget the "fix" Sony offered after they were initally caught was an even MORE invasive rootkit. 🫠
Yeah, fuck those rootkits. Despicable.
