Opt out and do the work yourself, then. Someone has to get paid for the work, and the risk that they took on in doing the work with their own funding.

If you want to pay a lawyer and keep what is left over after expenses (hah!), have at it.

Edit: I love how nobody here can explain how this is wrong, even if not to me (take it to the presiding judge), just unpopular. Well, if you need to vent to manage your emotions...

Presumably people think it's absurd that it requires a court case in the first place. Sony printed on the box that it could output 8K, it can't output 8K, therefore Sony lied. It's really not a complicated issue that requires lawyers. People should be able to send Sony their PS5s and get a full refund, or Sony should enable 8K output on all PS5s (assuming they can). Unfortunately, there's no simple consumer protection system in place that can quickly fix issues like this.
