PlayStation support has confirmed that a new digital rights management policy for the console is intentional, not a glitch. Starting with any digital games purchased after the March 2026 system update, your PS5 will require an internet connection at least once every 30 days to validate (twitter.com)

Yea, there has been lots of this sort of crap going around. Last week Amazon decided to brick perfectly good older model Kindle readers for no real reason at all. They won't be able to connect to Amazon anymore, so if you have one, you need to jailbreak it. I have at least two of the affected models, a first gen Kindle Fire and a Kindle 4, and I am NOT happy.

that's why you don't even for a single second after buying you take them off airplane mode, let alone enter a wifi password.

just use calibre and pirate everything. annas archive is the goto nowadays.

edit. also install de-drm plugin so you can grab ebooks from your library etc.

Is calibre a ebook reader or search/downloader?

a library management software that reads and converts basically anything. if you use the de-drm stuff you can lend out ebooks from a library, remove it, keep it, should there be stuff you can't find with other means.

pro-tip: convert into amazons format and set the converter up to remove font-css. then you can also install and use custom-fonts on your kindle. works on both my kindle4 and paperlight or whatever the newer one is called.

When most people just use their phone as an ereader. That was the stupidest action they could've taken. No one is going to want their brand of ereaders. And, there are so many better brands of ereaders out there.
