[EU] Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from destroying older games with kill switches after official support ends.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures so that the european parliament will respond to the petition that then leads to game ownership protections enacted for consumers.

Yuzu and the like were likely targetted because these things will more than likely (with very little modification) be able to play ripped games. The 'key-cards' are their effort to reduce the footprint for people to rip the games directly off of the cart.

It will only slow us down by a few months at most before someone jailbreaks it, and we can take our stuff and move it to the SteamDeck.
