The circle is closed: Sony complained of itself during the struggle with spoilers from The Last of Us: Part II

This week the company Sony started sending out review versions of the game to journalists and bloggers The Last of Us: Part II. However, the fight against spoilers using tools has not gone away.

We previously reported that lawyers from the company Muso tnt, representing the interests of the Japanese platform holder, started a war with memes, spoilers, news and videos that discuss the situation around The Last of Us: Part II without spoilers.

Strikes for violation of DMCA received indiscriminately, including the chief editor Gamemag Mikhail Shaginyan. In addition, the studio Naughty dog took advantage of the new feature Twitterby starting to turn off comments on your posts.

However, such a policy only led to the opposite, provoking the Streisand effect. Moreover, the indiscriminate complaint policy ultimately hit Sony itself.

May 6 in the official microblog Playstation A link to the plot trailer The Last of Us: Part II and a screenshot from the game were published on Twitter. But on the night of May 26 to 27, users noticed that the image is no longer available for viewing.

The description says that the screenshot was seized based on a complaint received from the copyright holder. That is, Sony itself complained about Sony. Rather, lawyers from Muso TNT.

This only confirms our theory that the basis for complaints is the use of official screenshots and trailers.
