PlayStation Slogan Player Has No Ownership Meme

This is a 4-panel black and white comic meme. The first panel features a stern corporate executive addressing a group, stating that the team needs ideas for a new PlayStation slogan. The second panel shows the proposed positive slogan "Player Has No Limit", with the other executives looking neutral and approving. The third panel alters the slogan to "Player Has No Ownership", a pun referencing the widespread criticism of PlayStation's digital purchase policy, where users only license games they pay for rather than owning them outright. The final panel shows all executives looking shocked, horrified, and alarmed at the blunt, accurate slogan that exposes the unpopular corporate policy.

Origin notes

This is a remix of the widely used "Boardroom Suggestion" meme template, shared on Reddit's r/Meme subreddit via RSS, as provided in the source information. The original post title was "If buying isn't owning, then we travel the seven seas", where "travel the seven seas" is internet slang for online piracy, referencing the common consumer response to restrictive digital licensing that prevents actual ownership of purchased content.
