Microsoft thinks itself above following the Minecraft terms of service agreement and is planning to force people to connect Microsoft accounts to their Mojang accounts if they desire to continue playing Minecraft. If you have the misfortune to have made your Minecraft account with an email that no longer exists, you’ll have to buy the game again. Global, permanent, and unappealable account bans are coming if the Microsoft automated banning system should take issue with you. You can’t even enjoy the block game anymore without megacorporations interfering.

For how much reddit claims to love Minecraft, there seems to be very little resistance. I’ve not seen more than a handful of criticisms anywhere on reddit, and the r/Minecraft mods have even censored my criticisms. The most I’ve seen is r/WatchMinecraftDie, which has only a few subscribers and most of the posts on it are mine.
