The Stop Killing Games campaign’s petition to the European Commission has hit a major milestone, surpassing a million signatures. However, the YouTuber behind this effort to stop companies from rendering games unplayable by shutting down their servers is still asking for more folks to get their pens out and sign, due to concerns about fakery.
If you’re out of the loop, Ross Scott originally launched Stop Killing Games back in 2024, after Ubisoft pulled racing game The Crew offline. Cue a lot of debates about terms of service which tell folks that when you buy a game, you’re not buying permanent access to it, but rather a license to play it for as long as it exists.
