In that case there would be a short term loss on banning some customers. The long term gain would be in the power to silence anyone criticizing your company. Sony/Microsoft would work with Facebook/Twitter/Amazon/Google to silence anything they want. They already work with each other to kill competitors like Parler. In the long term having ability to censor all public opinions over the Internet is much more profitable.
I wish it would work like that. Truth is, these people will most likely just make new accounts and buy the same games all over again. They'll actually increase sales.
And can't buy microtransactions! How crazy would it be if they did this only to find the biggest whales are the most toxic players?
They don’t need American sales when they accepted China “investment”.

That may sounds great but there will always be dissidents so in effect their reckless banning would always result in losing customers.
I dunno, I see far too many of these types of players literally just buy the game again and get another account over and over.
