    And your solution is put down the one that did?

    The EU citizens initiative objectively improves our chances of having a slightly better society in the future.

    And that does not happen at the expense of some other arbitrary more important potential improvement.

    So you are literally just complaining about something getting better.

        Then get off your ass and start and promote the petition you want to see instead of whining about what you do see.

        Assuming you want to do more than just complain about shit on the Internet while actually doing nothing, that is.

        No you aren’t.

        There is absolutely nothing here indicating the people who care about this, don’t care about other issues.

        If anything, this was so successful because it might actually work.

        A bunch of EU citizen signatures wishing a war to end wouldn’t do shit.

        Why are you worried about other people’s priorities? Worry about your own.

    Well clearly you’re lying or you haven’t been looking, because this is NOT the most popular initiative on ECI.

    There’s a lot of crossover here. It encompasses the “you rent everything and own nothing” aspect of today’s society. It’s multi-billion corporations against consumers.

    A win here will be something that will expose chinks in the armour for a lot of other issues. I know it might seem unimportant because it’s games, but that’s its beauty. It’s a backdoor into so many other fights.

      Exactly! Some examples:

      • right to repair - actually owning games is similar to actually owning laptops and phones
      • ads in cars, apps, etc that you’ve bought - do you really own it if it’s littered with ads you don’t control?

      Set the precedent, then gradually expand scope.
