Well that's a headline I never thought I'll write. Several posts and comments on the GOG subreddit have noticed a promotional e-mail that contains some... interesting symbols, which I can confirm with my own e-mail. As can be seen from the screenshot below, an e-mail containing a discount code for the game The End of the Sun (nothing out of the ordinary so far) contains 4 symbols that resemble Nazi iconography.

  1. It's a literal hate symbol.
  2. You are defending a company using Nazi imagery.
  3. There was no reason for the inclusion of the Nazi hate symbol.

    Oh boy! Look at you making assertions. Please fix this for us by boycotting GOG and telling all your friends at Starbucks.

    Oh, explain how using the Schutzstaffel insignia is acceptable?

    Like, if Starbucks put a swastika on their cups, and the symbol came out 45° rotated on some of them (as the third reich did), and they just decided not to ship those ones to Germany, it'd be pretty hard to defend.
