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.

How can we improve messaging with "Games today have expiration dates"? (fedia.io)

Ross, in his video with GamersNexus mentioned that games nowadays have expiration dates. I think that's a great way of framing the issue and making it clear to gamers what should change.

Unfortunately, I do not have a good idea how to present the problem of "Games today have expiration dates" to people in a succinct manner. My image editing skills aren't good, so spamming various communities in different images to make them aware of the issue won't really work. Does anybody have ideas?
