It's just adding a new layer to the mix when the people at the top are literally the royal family of an oppressive monarchy with openly fucked human rights practices.
(looks at the current CEO's of most the big companies.)
I mean, I get where you're going.... but it's assholes all the way up.
You're not wrong, but I feel like there are subtle levels to these things.
If I start up a game and a logo comes up for Namco or Square Enix or whatever, most of them don't make me think, "oh, I remember that time their owners assassinated a journalist, it made the international news, and they fully got away with it anyway." That's no longer the case for an EA logo.
