I can face it. I will not accept it.
What about the 2b he's getting from the Saudis in the form of crypto?

Never tried. I'm a ps guy now, but the point is that there shouldn't be region codes to begin with.
Anywhere I've ever seen a region code to be changeable you only get to change it a certain number of times before you get stuck in a region. This is why you'll find TBD players that have been firmware flashed to be regionless.
Uh, we kinda tricked rocks into thinking using lightening and learned to use rocks to make AI...
They're the Disney of gaming, really.
So, this is a basic security principle. If the system of access is too "secure" or too inconvenient, people will create workarounds.
Need keys for all the doors every second of every day? You'll find duct tape on all the latches.
Password is 15 characters and changes every 60 days? You're going to find post-its under keyboards.
Spread all digital content across 8 streaming providers that cost about $180/y? Torrent time.
Nintendo wants to brick users for trying to play an out of region game they paid for? They'll never pay again and will reverse engineering your shit out of spite.
Same thing we saw with the music industry utterly failing to embrace internet distribution. Limewire and bearshare are their fucking lunch.
When will they learn to just make access easy? People, generally, would rather pay than pirate but when you start making shit difficult, nobody wants to play your games anymore and you see massive losses.
Meet your customers where they're at!
