Ritchie is an AIPAC funded sociopath but, this sounds pretty good.

I look forward to this being gutted and quietly forgotten.

If the EU failed at it, the US has no hope.

As far as I know this has never even been on the EU table. There’s the SKG initiative which last I checked hasn’t completely failed, but that was never directly about game ownership in the first place, only that the game should be left playable after official support has ended. The SKG initiative in some ways lays the groundwork for pushing for game ownership.
That said, I would seriously question the sincerity of Ritchie Torres and I think this is more of a case of him trying to fish for votes than him actually trying to do something good. I wouldn’t have the confidence to believe he wouldn’t pass up a bribe from the gaming industry.
