This is the weekly progress report on the petition asking the European Union to regulate that games be left in a playable state in their final patch including releasing the server binary for multiplayer games. This is spurred on the fact when the servers shut down for the Crew 2014, the players who owned the game were no longer able to play the single player aspect as it required an online connection to do so.
The petition needs 1 million signatures to have the bloc assembly respond:

Thanks for the quick and super clear answer. I did my share. I will see over the weekend to share it to the french community.
Thank you for supporting the petition ❤️
