Did they remove it due to internal or external pressure?

Other pages referring to this story got taken down also: https://www.escapistmagazine.com/news-call-of-duty-jeffrey-epstein-microtransactions/

    So I tried looking through jmail for “kotick”, “call of duty”, and “microtransaction” and couldn’t find it. Neither in the official library (haven’t checked call of duty there though, too many results). Do we know that this is actually real? Maybe the articles got removed because it turned out to be fake?

        That’s just an email TO Epstein.

          Look at the quoted email, starts from “Jeffrey Epstein wrote”

          The emails were allegedly from Epstein advisors.

            That part is JE quoting something Kotick said. That’s why the other person is responding to JE and mocking him for it.
