Well, it affects me in that now I know not to buy this game and support such a scummy practice.

Is the game developer involved or is it just Sony doing Sony there are some things that there are some things that don't things?

“this step will help us continue to build a community that you are all proud to be a part of”

Someone is selling ad data from this, not entirely sure if it’s Sony or dev or both

The developer is involved. Though it's pretty obvious that the push for this is from Sony, they are the publisher for the game.

The developer is involved to the extent that they have to do what Sony says. The CEO of Arrowhead even tweeted that people should email Sony, referring to a Playstations own website where it stated that PSN is optional. Sony then quickly changed their web page to say it's sometimes required.

From my point of view this is all Sony.
