Last month, Sony Interactive Entertainment's announcement that it would abandon game discs by 2028 sparked widespread outrage. Although player protests were loud, they lacked substantial binding power. However, a beautiful female legislator from Mexico announced an investigation, claiming that Sony's move涉嫌 monopoly. Unexpectedly, the action was highly efficient, and on August 4 local time, it was announced that legal proceedings had officially begun.
· Mexican federal deputy Iraís Reyes announced on August 4 local time that she has joined forces with Senator Luis Donaldo Colosio to file a complaint with the Mexican Federal Commission for Economic Competition (COFECE), alleging that Sony Interactive Entertainment's abandonment of game discs violates antitrust laws.
· Senator Donaldo Colosio stated at a press conference that players pay to purchase games, and technology (digital development) should not restrict players' rights but rather empower them with freedom, emphasizing that digital assets are not something that can provide users with secure ownership.
· Perhaps even if this move succeeds, it may not affect Sony's finaldecision, but Sony's policies in certain countries and regions around the world may be adjusted in the future.
