good time to remind folks as well as dns you can actually block PlayStation update url's from your router if you'd like for an extra layer of protection

Maybe they make a mistake on 8.20?

oh boy another update

 

[FateNightroad2]

Oh yeah, I'm so going to update now. I'm soooo going to update! I'm going to boot up my PS5, go to settings and UPDATE MY FRICKEN PS5!

Better yet, I'll just turn on my PS5 and $ONY was automatically push for an auto update, even though my automatic update settings are unchecked. What an age we live in, what service!!!
