Hate speech is currently a big problem. Moreover, it is supported by social media which is currently mushrooming in society. Hate speech increasingly has a place to grow more and more massively. The problem of hate speech is getting bigger, especially when there is no control from the owner of the social media.
Reporting from Gamerant, Playstation continues to boycott Facebook and Instagram. Previously, Playstation had removed its integration with Facebook since October 2019 for no reason. Until the #StopHateForProfit movement emerged, which accused several social media such as Instagram and Facebook of seeking profit with negative content that smelled of hate speech.
However, no one knows how long this movement will last. Meanwhile, several companies that followed the movement such as Playtation, Coca-Cola, Starbucks, and many others. The Playstation itself supports this movement by removing its advertisements on Facebook and Instagram.
This is of course a problem for the Playstation, which currently really needs social media support to market the PS5. Especially with the planned release schedule around December. However, as of this writing, Playstation has not advertised on Facebook or Instagram.
Therefore, the explanation above illustrates that no advertisements have yet appeared from the Sony Playstation for Instagram and Facebook. It is feared that this will affect the sales of the PS5 which will soon be launched.
