it’s looking more and more like i will wait for the crack for gta6
Good boy
On the upside, those 30 people are probably enough to form their own group and start making games. I hope they do and earn back their losses.
Hard to say… It seems in this case they were unable to organize themselves.
And if they do, I sure hope they unionise.
Rockstar is undoubtedly evil, but come on, Discord group?! These people work in a tech industry for fuck’s sake.
You use an insecure but accessible option? You have a chance at organizing successfully but you risk union busting.
You use a secure but inaccessible option that people don’t already use? You have no chance at organizing.
Discord is where the people are. As an organizer, you don’t get to decide for people where they should be, you hold your nose and use a secure option for the organizing committee.
you hold your nose and use a secure option
secure option
You missed the part about the secure option being for the OC
discord being insecure almost certainly had nothing to do with it
they either had a rat or someone left a device signed in unattended where a rat could find itA whole lot of people working in tech are not themselves using the bleeding edge of tech
What would you suggest instead and why would it have changed the outcome?
Literally a lemmy instance is more secure, but also matrix, signal, fucking whatsapp might even work because Facebook has to keep up an image that they have a secure private product even when they don’t. Discord is famous for leaks.
Do you think rockstar hacked discord then?
It was probably another employee that ratted them out
Would they have to? They could just ask nicely.
Well the point is it doesn’t matter what platform was used unless you think discord was compromised to get the list of members.
From the company’s perspective it would be the easiest way, though I doubt they limited themselves to one way. $100 at the weakest link would be faster but more expensive
Is it the most blatant and ruthless act? I know in other industries union busting has historically been more ruthless, and I kind of imagined there was something more ruthless in gaming too.
