You wouldn't pirate a game you already paid for to be able to play it again since the company stopped supporting it and no longer sells it

The US version of it recommends the DGCCRF which is exclusive to France or visitors thereof

Because it's PRIMARILY about The Crew, sold by Ubisoft, a French company.

There is no US push to stop killing games like they're doing in other countries because it's impossible without lobbying money, which they don't have.

yea i figured the reason might be similar to that, too bad the US just doesn't care about consumer rights, I just find it weird they bother mentioning it on the US page if the US can't actually use it
