This article felt a bit like AI click bait. Seems like they were really more interested in talking about AI and providing a link to [redacted]'s AI site. When writing an article about price hikes, why would you take a quote from a CEO pitching his AI site? Why not talk to actual consumers or even better yet CEO's of companies that are gouging us, or companies that are providing lower priced items. And what about stores, nothing said about them yet they are not innocent in this, nothing about them in the article.

    I'm never buying Lays chips again, I haven't for over a year now. Never going back, they never needed to raise their price that much, greedy greedy greedy. They took the corpo idea of 'never leaving money on the table' and thought they could gouge us. They thought of us as stupid 'cattle' that would cower to their decades old brand. Fuck brand loyalty. Same thing for McDonalds, I haven't been back there in over 4 years and I'm NEVER going back. NEVER.

    The first EA game I got was M.U.L.E. (circa mid 80's) for the Atari 800, the last was Battlefield 3. I was an avid supporter until they turned all greedy, I would have purchased many of their titles after BF3 if they were not such greedy devils.

    When EA started it was focused on making the game developers 'rock stars' to attract and show appreciation for the good game developers. They lost that vision along the way to feeding their own selfishness.
