    FYI, the stop killing games creators knew this would happen from a leaked article months ago, and instead shifted to work with EU Parliament, where they have majority support.

    The EU commission just outed themselves as corrupt corporate cronies for nothing, as Stop Killing Games continues.

    Just lapse the fucking copyright and make the source code subject to FOI when the game leaves stores.

    Abolish the European Comission, and hold all commisioners accountable for their crimes and treason.

    The Comission has repeatedly made it clear that it does not have the European Union's best interests in mind. It's an entity evidently run by foreign powers, that constantly puts the future of the entire European Union at risk.
