I was going to skip 5 and get a 6 when it finally came out but I guess 4 will be my last playstation

I do kind of take issue with the presentation here. Pointing to the number of countries without access is rather misleading because it gives a country as large as Pakistan the exact same weight as somewhere like Tuvalu. In terms of population, the list of blocked countries is I believe around 30% of the world population. That's definitely still significant and IMO worthy of a headline on its own, but the way this article focuses only on the raw number of countries feels disingenuous for the sake of being able to showcase a big attention-grabbing number.

Why does the article say the EU can't do anything when this is a literal monopoly? Yes we can't force Playstation to keep selling disks but forcing them to allow other storefronts on the system sounds very achievable to me.
