Safe to say the petition was a success! Now we will have to wait and see the EU's response to it.

Ok but is there any group or lobbyists who are advocating or will this just be a petition sent to them which they can just ignore.

    The European Parliament legally cannot ignore it.

    To what extent do they have to talk about it, though? Can they address it, come to the conclusion that it's infeasible (while subtly tucking millions of dollars from game companies into their pockets), and consider the matter settled? I understand that governments are meant to keep corporations in check to benefit the people, but functionally they keep the people in check to benefit corporations and their "lobbyists" (bribes).
