Safe to say the petition was a success! Now we will have to wait and see the EU's response to it.
Hope every gaming company out there is sweating buckets at this. This is a matter of customer rights.
Stop Killing Games reaches its goal of 1.4M signatures, covering the risk of valid signatures going under 1M

They hire like two lobbyists with 100k of splurge money and this won’t pass, for sure.
If voting or filling a petition changed anything they would make it illegal.

By the way, the left could have done this for any number of issues in the past but refused to.
Like how hard would it have been if everyone who showed up to a George Floyd protest instead donated to some fund that then went to paying a lobbyist/think tank to work for them in Washington to change laws and make sure the police officers and department actually saw justice.

We don’t want them to sweat, we just want them to do the right thing by their customers

The only way I see that happen is having the tools and ability to pirate any and all media like we had back in the napster days. That’s the only time I’ve ever seen these companies scared. A petition I don’t think will do much. Plus not only is there this issue. There is also the issue of groups now targeting the way funding works like on steam. Payment processes are now being used to apply pressure where certain groups do not like the content.

If only the “tax the rich” petition had such a great villain to reinvigorate interest, but I take what I can get.

This is an EU petition, not the US.
Doomers coming out in force today

Elon, Trump, and the rest of the fucking pantheon weren’t enough to invigorate interest, I don’t who what is.

I genuinely can’t think of any way to address your level of immaturity. Here’s your reality check. I didn’t vote for the guy, I don’t like him. You’ve been checked kid.

I’ve recently gotten back into (indie) game dev and made my multiplayer game with Stop Killing Games in mind. When you connect to the game, if the server is down, you get the option to play single player instead!
