Comment on #StopKilligGames update: Finland just passed the threshold.

I don’t believe he’s being genuine in his arguments and is misrepresenting the cause or hasn’t understood it. It was possible to make games that didn’t stop working once a server shut down and it still is.
Being given a server binary isn’t a licensing issue unless you make it one. And because publishers and studios sign shitty contracts, doesn’t make it right, nor the only way to do business.

Agree. I don’t know this person, but at best he didn’t understand the campaign and overdosed on defeatism. At worst he’s intentionally misrepresenting the campaign and lobbying against better consumer rights.
