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.

Time and again companies have made horrendously bad decisions for the consumer and others have soon followed suit, especially in the gaming market. If you can't open your eyes wide enough to understand why a player - and this isn't just PlayStation, it's Sony, a company with fingers in many pies - in an oligopoly putting so much effort into eroding basic ownership principles while everyone else just 'sits back and watches' is bad for the market as a whole, I have nothing more to say to you, you're simply too dim to grasp basic concepts.
Good one champ
