A few things:
1.) Giantbomb hasn't written anything on the topic, but the person I would expect to write about it, Patrick Klepic, is in the middle of a move back to the midwest, so maybe his mind is elsewhere. So I don't think there's much in the way of a conspiracy theory to this. If you want to criticize GB for something in this regard, I guess I would say that they all seem pretty lackadaisical on these subjects, as in, "We don't really care." I don't think they support anything, but room for serious conversations is pretty limited on the site as a whole. Seriously, have you ever seen Ryan Davis give a shit about anything? Patrick is about as close to someone who would report on that stuff as you can get.
2.) Total Biscuit seems like a serious dick. "Hey protesters! Shut up!" Really, why even do that? What purpose does it serve other than to pretend like you're somehow more important that other people?
3.) I'm glad to see this has garnered media attention. I have zero faith that it will change the policies of any of the suits at MS or deter Sony from whatever path they've previously chosen, but at least people have been heard. There can be no blinders in this situation.
