This is a very strange event as they've also told people not to share any details about it. What the hell is going on here?

Some people on Reddit have theorized that it might be game streaming, much like Xbox's Cloud gaming. Of course, take on this fan theory with a huge grain of salt, but that's the only thing I can think of being realistic. Some on Reddit in the US said the application only last like 4 seconds before it they had to close it. Again, take with a grain of salt because Reddit does have a bot problem same as Twitter.

Can confirm that registration was legitimately 4 seconds.

I clicked the link right at 11 EST and got rejected immediately
