EA: ‘Cynical bastards’
Notch criticizes game publisher Electronic Arts for calling a collection of its games on Steam an indie bundle, because they are not an “indie” studio:
EA releases an "indie bundle"? That's not how that works, EA. Stop attempting to ruin everything, you bunch of cynical bastards.

He also clarifies that he does not consider Mojang to be indie either:
Fwiw, I don't even call Mojang inde any more. Vlambeer is indie. Polytron is indie. Stephen, Ed, Terry, Derek, Tommy and Chris are indie.

Notch: Yogscast ‘total dicks’
Notch accuses the Yogscast YouTube duo of being rude to kids at Minecon 2011 and acting like they are better than the other speakers at the event:
And they claim they're the reason minecraft is big and that we should thank them more than anyone else in the community. They're total dicks

The Yogscast does not have time to respond immediately:
