    Hoping things will turn out great is for idiots.

    I agree. Hence this initiative. Nothing will change without action, is this is the action that EU citizens can feasibly take. I’ve written my legislators, and that’s about all I can do in the US, other than spread the word on social media.

    Also: If your only argument is that I am not taking the “Stop Killing Games” movement seriously enough? You don’t have one. Which… is par for the course.

    I wasn’t making that argument at all.

      Relying on favorable interpretations of “reasonably functional” is just begging lobbyists and lawyers to ruin it for everyone.

      Pushing for legislature with specifics that are actually good is how we get precedent.

      “Stop Killing Games” is the former and most of “the movement” is twitch streamers telling their audiences what they want to hear.

        The industry has already ruined it for everyone. This is the best plan we’ve got to fix it.
