Sony patent turns PlayStation controller into payment terminal

It's absolutely criminal what kind of stuff you can patent. They basically patented something someone probably came up, or could easily have come up, with in a brainstorming session. There's no tangible work behind the core idea.

That said, I'm not sorry to see the adoption of such an idea hindered by a patent.
