Sony has not been having a good time with their 'secret' new Slim version of the PlayStation 4. Images of the PlayStation 4 Slim and new DualShock 4 have been popping up all over the internet. Even multiple PS4 Slim consoles have appeared on auction sites.
It's safe to say that Sony doesn't have a tight hold on the new PlayStation products. According to some users on Twitter and Facebook, Sony has been abusing the ability to send DMCA notices. It is being reported that tweets with the image of a PS4 Slim in it are up for removal by Sony's request.
If you have Tweeted or Re-Tweeted an image of the PS4 Slim, DELETE IT. Sony is sending out DMCA strikes against accounts sharing the image.

On top of that, there are some reports that Sony is sending DMCA notices for Facebook posts containing images of the PS4 Slim. We have even received our own video take-down request on Facebook on a video featuring pictures of the PS4 Slim.
It's interesting to see Sony attempt to cover up the PS4 Slim by issuing DMCA notices to people who are using their own images, which is their own property.
