Comment on The end of Stop Killing Games [Accursed Farms]
echodot@feddit.uk 13 hours agoBut politicians will actually be prepared to get behind right to repair. But they regard games as a bit infantile, and don’t really want to be involved. A point that was made right at the start of all of this and was then completely ignored.

that’s an assumption. for all we know they would have connected the two, or seen one as harmless and implemented it, or lobbied against both.

People are already talking about to right to repair, so why not take advantage of that, why make life more difficult for yourself than it needs to be?

because to most people software is not a thing that can be repaired.

So how is that different?
I don’t understand, the arguement is whether or not they should have equated this to the right to repair movement, And then you say you think that’s a bad idea but I don’t understand your justification. Your justification seems to be that people don’t care about software, but my if they do not care about software, then they also do not care about hardware, and therefore your comment is irrelevant.
I literally don’t understand your justification for not equating game preservation to right to repair.
