We are used to endings being spoiled and plot points being in YouTube videos, it is annoying but usually everyone just ignores it and plays the game or decides to play the game watching a scene or two to avoid any further spoilers.

I do think a compromise can be made over there for the ending to wait 10 days after release for the ending as usually that is the least worst route to take vs say Atlus of a year. But also arresting users for uploading footage is kind of just overdoing it as well as that wastes law enforcement time.
