I don’t agree with this because this is more like someone saying something dumb next to their smart speaker and the FBI crashing through their window. If anything it’s a dumb extra step that doesn’t do anything but annoy players.

I don’t? I wasn’t campaigning for this change to a game I haven’t played in years.

the problem is, this does nothing to stop those things.

This is like putting a mic in everyone’s home to catch harassment.

It sure does seem like a whole bunch of people who have been doing shady to downright shitty things are trying to reframe the narrative to be that they are being “censored”.

Which sure does have some allegories to some real life stuff happening, so i guess that’s where this tactic is coming from.

some players are still worried about edge cases, as well as the freedom to run private servers as they see fit.

Thanks for making me spit an entirely too expensive coffee out with intense laughter.

Impressive. Square managed to combine all of the things I hate about modern sites and apps into one inconvenient package!

Please Kotaku, don’t make video posts a thing.

I played Doom on it.

Haha, fools. I used it cook my dinner last night.

That’s not how it works. They’ll just block access to it. It’s like America, nobody is getting arrested unless there’s large scale distribution. Even then, the police and government are lazy and will only intervene if there’s bad publicity. This is all generally, there are always exceptions.

wow what a noob. I’ve been doing my taxes with it.

I think it’s that, running a marketplace like this is akin to selling shovels during a gold rush.

I’m assuming that ”nuked from orbit” means that the image was removed from the servers. So the person still “owns” that NFT in the same way I “own” a receipt for a sandwich (that I ate). 

The ironic thing is that if NFTs start gaining the traction they used to have, the people that got their hands on this one might actually get a ton more money for it than any other NFT that was available on GameStop.

Another aspect of this story - the NFT had “changed hands” several times already, so it “belonged” to someone - right? Any yet, Gamestop just “nuked it from orbit”... so much for “ownership” when it comes to NFTs...
