I know these rarely have any sway with our governments and there is more important things in the world atm, but it's getting close to the end now and it's worth a reminder.

Um, no. Ross Scott, the organizer of this whole thing, said that it will most likely fail. Meaning that there's still a chance of success, not that he's completely given up. The deadline for the European Citizens Initiative is 31st July, more than a month from now.

Also, fuck Pirate Software.

    That is false, PC Gamer screwed up. Here are both pages of the initiative itself:

    https://eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#/screen/home

    https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007

    Deadlines are in the upper right. And as you can see, it does NOT say July 3rd.

    Yes, I may have jumped the gun, I apologize. What this initiative is trying to do is important to me and between Pirate Software lying his face off and one of the most prolific gaming publications not getting their facts straight... The amount of misinformation being spread around this topic just hurts my soul.
