Never mind that "Jojo reference" pic, but I was surprised they could do that. A very first step for prevent the spoilers, I think?

EDIT: Just a bit heads up and avoiding click on the tweet.

I know they can't get everything but I got spoiled by shit on YouTube and stuff that was up for days/weeks according to upload times.

But now they're going for shit that's up on a game that's out? Kinda odd.

Be aware that this is the TLJ of gaming. Do not engage with any social media for this game, it is all utterly trash and beyond toxic, the best of the best of alt-right bigots

They deserve it. I don't have any empathy for those losers especially considering they've been spreading fake spoilers rather than playing the game themselves or waiting before judging

This won't end well. This will only cause more spoilers for TLoU2 and other games in the future, now done in greater numbers on purpose to spite Naughty Dog. You can't DMCA the entirety of the internet.

As dragonbone said, be prepared for another Last Jedi. Vitriol, homophobia, transphobia, and misogyny are going to be rampant while actual criticism will be lost.

The game is already out with full playthroughs all on YouTube. Why do this now?

Not 4Chan but 8Chan for what I've been reading on Twitter.

The game is fully able to be shared with spoilers and all today. Been watching Cohh play it and he says he can play the whole thing. Seems odd to do this today? Unless it's a fake SS.

Well that makes this move even more worthless. 8chan's traffic is a fraction of 4chan's /v/, and /v/ been airing open spoilers about the game for months. Naturally it has kicked up several notches in the past 48 hours.

Ugh... I hate the people that are spoiling the game but this is borderline censoring. What if Sony just started DMCAing every post with a negative opinion?

I don't understand how you can DMCA an entire site? 4Chan aren't under embargo, are they?

I am so happy that I just remembered that the Last of Us 2 is coming out tonight. I managed to avoid all the spoilers and completely forget about the game and now it's downloading.

This turned out to be a long night.

Whatever you think of 4chan it's messed up that a company can abuse copyright laws to do something like this. It's literally just people talking about the game at the end of the day.

Oof that's a mistake. I think this gonna poison a lot of discussions about future PS games and pretty much guarantee targeted spoilers

I don't think spoilers are the problem here (the whole internet has them), is more the bigotry that crossed the line because it's 4chan

Like my thoughts on violence and punching Nazis, this is something I'm generally against but willing to make an exception for.

Any company trying to play nice/appease/not piss off the 4chan crowd in 2020 is losing.

"I know they post a lot of racist/homophobic/transphobic/anti-Semitic slurs and hate speech when discussing the game but its a slippery slope."

Game spoilers are being talked about on the entire internet. The fact that Sony didn't want their game associated with 4chan in this climate makes sense. Context matters folks.
