I think [HYPERLINK_BLOCKED] is referring to the same thing as with Mew Mew when she's talking about "protein"

With the new dialogue we got for the July 9th DELTARUNE update, we found out that IMAGE_FRIEND is a group of cat like creatures which chase after people who has protein.

I believe that Spamton is hiding from DEVICE_FRIEND and that's why he changed his appearance to look like Swatch and is hiding in the dumpster.

Spamton cannot get the NEO body alone because of DEVICE_FRIEND, as DEVICE_FRIEND is shown to be in the basement. I believe that DEVICE_FRIEND was hiding in the basement because of Spamton, not us.
