The European Pirate Party endorses the ‘Stop Destroying Videogames’ European Citizens’ Initiative as the first European political party to do so, and calls on everyone to sign and support it! Stop Destroying Videogames seeks to require publishers that sell or license video games to consumers in the European Union to leave them in a playable state. Today publishers are shutting down and disabling games when it suits them, relying on obscure paragraphs in the licensing agreements people are made to accept when they purchase the product.

[EU] Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from destroying older games with kill switches after official support ends.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures so that the european parliament will respond to the petition that then leads to game ownership protections enacted for consumers.
