[EU] Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from intentionally destroying older games with kill switches.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures in the EU so that the european parliament will respond to the initiative that then leads to regulation that requires end-of-life plans for games to stay playable.

I personally doubt the EU parliament will be much better but this does seem to have enough people caring now that if it was directed at specific games/companies it might actually convince them to change things. Right now there's only UK and EU people doing anything and it's mostly just signing a petition. Imagine if everyone could get involved in something directed at a company actively killing games.
