PlayStation Physical Media Removal Sparks #PSBlackout Boycott Campaign

PlayStation's discontinuation of physical disc games has triggered an international boycott movement called #PSBlackout, where players are being urged to avoid logging in, playing, and making purchases during one week in August. The campaign has gained support from hacktivist collective Anonymous, who view the move as symptomatic of eroding consumer ownership rights and framed the boycott as a statement that users are not powerless against corporate decisions.
