Just like the UK variant, this is an official government petition to look into the issue. Unlike the UK variant, the only signature threshold is 50 signatures - that said, more is better in this case.

Deadline: 20 May 2024

Here’s the Stop Killing Games campaign site for those unaware or not from Australia.

Signed, somewhere in the high 600s.

I'm sure like most petitions it will achieve fuck all, but I'll play my part in the pantomime!

Yeah I truly hope petitions work but everything I’ve ever signed hasn’t done shit. I think petitions are just a way of letting us think we have a voice.

That's why the campaign is aimed at multiple jurisdictions - there's a chance at least one of them works out.
