Using the word "plague" assumes that this is a widespread issue that is causing an unacceptably high number of consoles to be experiencing problems. The system just launched 1 million in North America alone within 24 hours. Failures on consoles happen. When you have a million of them out in the wild already, expect some issues. Unless these failures start getting anywhere near the RROD issues of the Xbox 360, using hyperbole to sensationalize hardware problems is really just showing a bias desire for this to be a bigger problem than it is. Information sharing is a lot more rampant on the internet than it was 8 years ago. When people get upset about something they take to the internet and cry about it. The ones who will be the loudest are the ones who had a problem with their console. No one I know who bought a PS4 has had these problems so far. Either personally or the people I met here.
