An EU Citizen’s Petition registered by the initiative Stop Killing Games has started collecting signatures from all around the Union in 31 July. The petition calls for publishers keep games that they discontinue from dissappearing altogether. Specifically, the initiative seeks to prevent the remote disabling of videogames by the publishers, before providing reasonable means to continue functioning of said videogames without the involvement from the side of the publisher.
