Hey everyone! I’m asking all EU citizens to sign the Stop Killing Games initiative; it’s soon over, and is vital for game preservation (and emulation imo) in the future. I’ve attached the proposals description below. If it reaches the 1 Million mark, the EU has no choice but to address it, as prescribed by its own laws.
Sign here!

“This initiative calls to require publishers that sell or license videogames to consumers in the European Union (or related features and assets sold for videogames they operate) to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state. Specifically, the initiative seeks to prevent the remote disabling of videogames by the publishers, before providing reasonable means to continue functioning of said videogames without the involvement from the side of the publisher.”
As everything in the EU, hopefully this will also trickle down to North America and the rest of the world. Thanks for your time!
