EA has tried this before, with predictable results. In 2020, EA Sports UFC 4 included full-screen ads for the Amazon Prime series The Boys that would appear during ‘Replay’ moments. These were absent from the game when it launched, with EA introducing the ads about a month later, thereby preventing them from being highlighted in reviews. It wasn’t long before the backlash led to EA disabling the ads.
Sony made a social media post. Original date for PsN requirement was June. During the backlash, over 100 countries were delisted. They still are. The current situation is still much worse than launch.
Don’t think you’re representing the situation accurately.
The primary goal was to not have to create a Playstation account, and people can get a refund now from Steam if they want, where before they could not.
Sony can always decide where to sell their products, regardless if there’s a controversy, or just any day of the week and for any reason. We could never control where Sony sells their products.

It’s pretty typical that you’re getting downvoted for not crying 100% gloom about every possible thing.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I’d love to know how to get a refund.
Try asking again for one.
That video I linked was stating they were now doing refunds. I haven’t tried it, since I don’t own the game (didn’t like the root level access crap). But I’ve also read elsewhere that at first they were not doing refunds but they changed their minds and now they are.
