[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.

In the context of SKG, Minecraft seems pretty unkillable to me.

  • Solid single player experience
  • Vibrant ecosystem of people hosting their own servers

If Microsoft disappeared overnight, everyone could still play Minecraft.

I guess there is a login system, but back when I used to play MC, you could play offline with cracked copies.
