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.

Remember to keep signing the petition even after it gets 1 million! Every single signature over 1 million makes it that much more likely to actually get accepted!

Worth adding that this is because the validation process may disqualify some signatures, dropping the total below a million.

If we get a million legitimate signatures, the EU comission is not allowed to simply reject the initiative.
