Just for context, their previous allegations would have gotten them some fines. If this is true, some of their executives could be going to prison for upwards of 20 years.

I don't think he's disputing the crime but being sceptical any of these clowns will be severely punished. And rightfully so since different rules usually apply to people with money.

Literally a federal crime.

literally these companies get away with far worse.

Nobody will go to prison. Activision will probably pay some pathetically low amount of money, and promise to be really good little boys and girls from now on, and nothing will change.

Barely anyone will even remember this in a year, and even less will care.

Ive been contacting them all day cause I want to play Warzone on PC but it keeps saying Login Error. Something about the email is already in use or some shit.

Bastards. Oh, and those other allegations are bad too.

They should remake Blackthorne and make him an outright nonce who sexually harasses everything... even the demonic alien babies

This, Blizzard literally supported a communist regime and nobody cared 2 months on from the incident, a sexual harassment case is a drop in the bucket.

Blizzard is just activision and both are changing their name next year to try to distance themselves from all their bullshit

I might cancel my D2R preorder and just wait to buy it used or something

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

I doubt they'll get anything more than a fine. I don't work directly in the HR space but this sort of data destruction rarely results in anything more than a fine and a slap on the wrist on their 'record'.

Yeah, they already rid themselves of a few scapegoats. Thus the problem is solved, so everyone get excited for New Product!

Literally a federal crime.

While I'm sure there are some examples of it these laws never effect anyone on the level of a Blizzard executives wealth. We have multiple tiers of justice, and the most we might see is a lower level employee getting thrown under the bus. I would be legitimately shocked to see anyone of standing in the company get in trouble for this.
