EPT"Stop Killing Games" is a consumer movement started to challenge the legality of publishers destroying video games they have sold to customers. An increasing number of video games are sold effectively as goods - with no stated expiration date - but designed to be completely unplayable as soon as support from the publisher ends. This practice is a form of planned obsolescence and is not only detrimental to customers, but makes preservation effectively impossible. Furthermore, the legality of this practice is largely untested in many countries.

Ross Scott from Accursed farms who started the campaign (yes, the same guy who made Freemans Mind and Civil Protection) has made several video explaining it way better than me.
Is there other TL users who has been following this campaign? Obiviously i am all for it, but maybe other disagree with my position, which is fine (not that i would understand it).
