    It shouldn’t be narrowly focused on just video games. Should simply be anything digital.

      Babysteps? Maybe if it is about video games, the old people won’t know enough about it and pass it, which would make it easier to expand to any digital software.

      Scoped in a way to get press and hopefully positive attention before voting starts in a week or so.

    I’d like to see this effort include the responsible sunsetting of games.

    If publishers no longer wish to host the game, and noinfer wish to collect money for it, they should relinquish the server code and let communities prop up games when the games services are decommissioned.

      Server code should come with the game from day 1, like it used to back in the '90s.

      If a bad person supports a good cause, that doesn’t make the cause bad.

        I agree, it’s more about pointing out that it doesn’t make the bad person good, especially when they’re pushing the bill at a time where it has no chance of passing.
