I support the Stop Killing Games movement.

If you purchase a product, it should be yours. The seller should not be allowed to take it or break it.

If you agree with that, I urge you to support the Stop Killing Games movement as well.

A screenshot of the top of the Stop Killing Games website, which reads as follows: Stop Killing Games "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. Over the past year, we have succesfully escalated complaints on this problem to consumer agencies in France, Germany, and Australia, and have brought forth petitions for new law on this problem to various countries. A list of the actions taken to date can be viewed here. As of 2025, most consumer action on this matter has concluded and we are awaiting decisions on it from several governments. However, there are a few remaining avenues left where people can participate if they are eligible: The European Citizens' Initiative is OPEN! SIGN THE EU PETITION The current signatures of the EU Petition in the screenshot is listed at 777,777 out of 1,000,000.
