[EU/UK] Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from 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.

You know, I wondered why PS was so strongly opposing this initiative since I thought he shouldn't be affected by it ... until I read his game terms linked on Steam:

This License will end automatically if you breach any of the terms. When this License ends you must stop all use of the Application and destroy and erase any copies you have.

Oh boy, that's why lol.
