Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I mean this feels like it should be illegal. Another reason to not buy Ubisoft games I guess.
I believe it is already illegal, but the ultra rich don't expect enforcement, so they don't care.
It'll be a fine, which will be massaged away into a "cost of business expense".
it is but it's a proven successful strategy most of the time anyways since it's cheaper to pay to fines than the lawsuit and 95% of the time the union doesn't have to funds to pay for capable legal representation to force the issue so that they result in those fines in the first place.
