"Gamers Launch Campaign to Halt Online Game Shutdowns and Preserve Media"
Gamers are rallying against the practice of rendering online games unplayable by launching the Stop Killing Games campaign, which aims to challenge the industry's assault on consumer rights and preservation of media. The campaign argues that video games should be considered "goods" rather than "services," and seeks to compel developers to provide a way for players to continue playing unsupported games, such as through private servers. While facing challenges in getting government petitions approved, the campaign has garnered attention and support from gamers worldwide.
