I just want to drop this link right here partially as a bookmark for myself and partially to “spread the message” to people who who care: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tUAX0gnZ3Nw&list=PLheQeINBJzWa6RmeCpWwu0KRHAidNFVTB&index=1&pp=iAQB. It’s a link to a playlist of videos by Ross Scott - the spokesperson & organizer of Stop Killing Games campaign which explains pretty much almost everything anybody needs to know about this campaign.

If anybody here is European please consider siging this initiative: https://eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#/screen/home.

To learn more about it you can visit this website: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/.

Basically, it's goal is to find a solution to a problem where companies design games that rely on central servers to run, then after some period of time (after companies stop making profits) they disable that central server - leaving people unable to play games they paid for. Also, this video gives a longer, better explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUAX0gnZ3Nw&list=PL6PNZBb6b9Lv3ZUSQvvtATkSlSXlZY6Oi&index=25.
