Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs (www.ign.com)

Sony went on to say that it takes a “firm stance” against such behavior, which includes examples like “persistent and repeated, or prolonged, demands, excessive or unreasonable demands for compensation or apologies, and abusive language, threats, slander, and other similar behaviors.”

Other examples included “forcing someone to prostrate themselves” and “visiting our offices or related facilities without permission.” If any such behavior is confirmed, Sony says it may “restrict or suspend customer service” to protect its employees — and, if necessary, contact “police, lawyers, etc.” to take legal action or begin criminal proceedings against them.

Has Sony just dared it's entire customer base to take part in a forced boycott?

The equivalent of somebody getting themselves barred from a pub/bookies/casino because they know that they can't do it on their own.

They say Microsoft and Xbox start to take a tumble and said to themselves "How badly can we fuck ourselves too?"

I'm in! As long as I don't have to get rid of my psx, PSP, ps2, ps3, and ps4. I promise not to give them another dime, or use any of their shitty online services... Though to be honest I started boycotting them about the time the first Destiny expansion was launched.
