Petition: Prohibit publishers irrevocably disabling video games they have already sold
petition.parliament.uk
The government should update consumer law to prohibit publishers from disabling video games (and related game assets / features) they have already sold without recourse for customers to retain or repair them. We seek this as a statutory consumer right.

The UK petition version of the Stop Killing Games initiative got a somewhat dismissive response in February. They said they had no plan to modify or introduce new laws, that existing laws were sufficient for protecting consumers.

Petition signers today received word via email that this would be debated in parliament on November 3rd.
