So this entire thing was blown way out of proportions.
For digital bought games, it checks while your downloading.... your gonna be online anyways (while your downloading off the net).
There is no 30day recheck used for anything.
This was supposedly just to patch in a bug, in people abusing the "automated return policy" option sony gives PS5 users.
Where if you buy a game, don't play it, within 14 days you can get a refund. People where doing that, and using the key's for exploited PS5 consoles, to play pirated games (for free).
So this basically checks to make sure, you don't refund + keep the game, so they know you aren't exploiting/pirating.
That is all it is.
Also Xbox does this as well supposedly.
Even steam, checks licenses of games, and time/gameplay for refund reasons.
