If software preservation crosses a boomer's desk he'll phone up his official puppet hand (soon to be lodged firmly inside of his asshole) and ask for the corporate line he should toe.
Major corporations like Autodesk or Adobe thrive on buying out their competition and killing their service (such as softimage), so they have a significantly more vested interest in killing anything that gets close to preventing them from doing that.
Of course the ideal law would just dismantle the current defunct system of software patents and copyrights that simply doesn't work.

As with all EU regulation, it will be selectively enforced and extremely obtuse, not to mention bloat the budget by hiring bullshit enforcement committees and the goons who will scour the internet looking for "infringements".
It's just going to add a bunch of extra work to release your shit in the EU, just like the cookie popups and "accessibility" features on websites.
Giving the players more power should be a conscious choice by a developer, and the developers who fuck players over need to be ignored. That's the only way to create a truly sustainable system.

>>714463396It's not much of a grey area anymore.
There has been a court case in iirc Belgium where a reseller for complex CRM systems was depending for a particular client on connecting up with an older product that turned out to have some bugs with it preventing a succesful integration. The outmoded product's vendor no longer wanted to support it with any bugfixes, so the reseller ended up decompiling the code - fixing the bugs - and then sold the instance of the modified software to their client.
The original vendor tried to sue them over it; the courts told them to go fuck themselves: this was legal - even commercially selling the fixed up product.

>>714459834>bottedYou can't bot that shit, retard. You need to use an ID card reader and plug your card and its code inside of it to vote.
>>714469416Not in the mood today. Already had this argument with you SKGgers a few times before. We never come to a conclusion, because ultimately, you don't care if property is private or not. You're ok with the law forcing people to relinquish their property. That's ultimately what it comes down to. You feel entitled to property that you don't own.

>>714469584this isn't a normal petition, dumbass
>>714469569>You're ok with the law forcing people to relinquish their property. That's ultimately what it comes down to.You genuinely believe devs have to use locked down third party software they don't own to make their games run at all, and thus this would need to be stolen from their owners and given to consumers to make games playable
You're the most retarded person in this thread
>>714454996Hard to say which side of the argument you are referring to
>Corporations don't need government meddling to ensure EoS schemes. The market will force companies to avoid this practice once it proves unprofitable and anti consumer.>Corporations need to be forced to release server kits for online or multi-player games. This needs to be codified into law because Corporations will not do anything for the consumer unless forced to.I try not to present buas here but I don't like the skg because it all hinges on some imagined game to fit the worst case scenario. What game that exists with the online only feature really is worth preserving? Suicide Squad? Maybe Lawbreakers, yeah, that's a keeper.
>>714462809Why would anybody hate white people?
>>714468084>What the absolute fuck am I hearing?An idiot talking. Rossman's so-called software architect comes off as not knowing even half of the subject matter being discussed.
As an actual software engineer myself, it was damned painful to listen to it and see Rossman being fed incomplete explanations, flat-out wrong explanations, and the occasional half-truth or full-on lie - with him not having the background knowledge himself to know that this was the case.
But that's going to end up fixing itself shortly, I think - as in Rossman's own community several other people that turned out being software engineers have already begun speaking out about the guy not knowing what he was talking about.

>>714470038And to prevent it from happening in future games, the law doesn't have to allow you to exploit grey areas to steal from people
Learn to cope
>>714468084its just laziness
>>714470105There's nothing gray about it. They said that you have to be logged into their service in order to play their games. Clear terms.
>>714469289>When you make live service games you should be required to provide an end of life plan.Sure. Ross suggested in one of his slideshows that one such acceptable plan could boil down to "release packet documentation and remove anything active impediments to fan efforts to make a private server". I think that's reasonable as a minimum that you could actually expect to enforce.
>WAH WAH WAH I DON'T CARE HOW SHIT ACTUALLY WORKS I JUST WANT TO CONSOOOOM, SAVE ME EU MANIt's so funny to see Louis Rossmann actually ask a guy who has any idea what he's talking about to weigh in, and all people do is seethe because he says it's not as simple as some clueless retard Youtubers said it is.

>>714464235>>714464890I have never, ever, ever heard the argument that the hell that are Microsoft's DLLs (everything: implementation, binary format, gestion) is a gold standard. It's, quite frankly, an absolutely fascinating argument of pure insanity, like trying to understand a point of view so crazy it comes back full round into being puzzling.
One of the only thing Windows and Linux devs or sysadmin agree on is that Windows DLLs are a mistake. From a dev pov the format is overcomplicated for no adequate reasons, prone to huge security holes, and from an admin pov the fact that Windows has no software manager means they're often copied 100 times over the system, defeating the purpose of having DLLs to begin with. It's a mess. ELF is often considered the sane way to do it, in comparison, and the Linux distrib style packet managing a gold standard of how it should be done.

A harmless movement for video games. Of course that shit is going to skyrocket with enough attention because it has a common enemy that everyone hates.
Not only that, any EU politician looking at it is currently rubbing their hands knowing they can easily milk this for free goodwill at no cost to their careers. It's not like the publishers are going to lobby a politician enough for him to push against SKG, so said politician would happily throw them under the bus in order to appeal to gamers and get their votes.
>>714454654 (OP)>gamergate badSend new nudes, Zoe.
>>714469569> You don't care if property is private or not. You're ok with the law forcing people to relinquish their property. That's ultimately what it comes down to. You feel entitled to property that you don't own.EU consumers do own their copies of a videogame.
The European Court of Justice decided as part of the line of reasoning applied in answering prejudicial questions for Usedsoft vs Oracle that what consumers buy is the copy of the software as a good, and that thus the rights of the manufacturer over said copy are exhausted - giving rise to the possibility of second-hand resale. They decided this applies EVEN in absence of a physical carrier medium, i.e. that it applies to pure digital sales - in which case you have ownership rights over the ephemeral bytes themselves.
Moving on - the EU Charter states in the first paragraph of Article 17 that all private possessions must be protected and a person can only be forced to part with them strictly under those limited cases allowed or required by law, and only in exchange for fair remuneration. Its second paragraph states intellectual property shall be protected, but it does not qualify that in a way that would make it impede on the first.
In short - the EU deems intellectual property rights such as those on software held by its publisher, as second to private possessions such as a consumer holding a purchased copy of said software as their possession.
>>714470356It's not hidden in the EULA. All live service games tell you that you have to be logged in to play their games directly.
But if you feel like they're still not direct enough, then I'm all for advocating to make it clearer. Would you agree to a message that pops up during the game's title cards that explains the terms? maybe give it some bells and whistles to alert the player?

>>714470751Intredasting. I read your post a few times over. If I understand it correctly, you argue that you're due a copy of the game. But you can't argue that you're due to the server side files that your game interacts with. As those are separate components.
Think about it like this: you purchase a novelty puzzle box. You can't solve it. But you can go to the company's website, where they have the solution there. So you follow their guide, solving your box. Years later, you're playing with your puzzle box again. You forgot the solution, you go to the company's website only to find out that it's down. You're not smart enough to solve your box, so it remains unsolved.
You still own the box. You just don't own the component that you needed to solve the box. It's not on the company to hand you a downloadable copy of the solution.

>>714454654 (OP)Yes, Gamergate was correct and so is skg. Gamergate will be remembered as a pivotal moment in history. Ethics in gaming journalism matters.
>>714471107ohh, right right. So a better solution would be like one of those medical ads. Where at the end, it informs you of all the side effects. "this may cause nausea and diarrhea. Do not take if you're pregnant". That kind of thing.

If server files are going to be included it up to the company, it just needs to work in the same way it did when you purchased it (without the original fanbase)
>>714471767No SKG-chan so nothing even imageboard about it.
>>714467050>which means they are completely unaffected by SKG.They aren't. Private servers are in a legal gray area at best, and illegal at worst. The devs of DF/AQ/AQW would need to do one of the following:
>provide a server themselves>patch the games to work offline>officially remove copyright protection from their servers to legally allow reverse engineering of the server-side logic (this is currently illegal or in a gray area, depending on the country)

>>714470751We're not Mc'mutts like you
>>714469453Fixing bugs is different from recreating proprietary servers which are not licensed to you. Check the actual Directive 2009/24/EC. The legal conclusion of it is the following:
A client being non-functional because the primary service it requires no longer exists is not actually covered by that directive. You're licensed the client-side of the video game, but are not given the rights to the server. The server and it's logic is still considered to be copyrighted and a trade secret. So, recreating the server logic, even if it would make your game functional, is not considered explicitly legal according to the directive. Even under the condition that the server runs on your PC and is only serving itself locally to your personal game client.
Even remaking the client to spoof server logic would technically not be fully legal (at least according to that directive, I'm not sure if there's any other law which would allow you to do this)

Buying the product doesn't mean you bought the license but it means you own the copy you bought.
I paid 60 bucks for this unit, It wasn't a rent. I own this copy and it is my right to have complete access to it for as long as I desire because the publisher who sold me that, sold it under that promise.
No company is saying they are renting you 70 bucks game. If they want to play that card, then make it clear to the consumer you don't own the unit you bought, even if you paid full price for it.

I find this very ironic, because earlier someone was arguing that couching terms in tedious ELUAs isn't fair. Yet, you have to read 11 tedious terms and policies, just to interact with the SKG's discord server.

SKG presents to the boomers a clear case that they can't ignore or run away from anymore. If it was written as "software" chances are vidya would be exempt again.

>>714474510Some say that the reason people defend billionaires, is that they secretly think that they may become rich one day. someone coined the term "temporarily embarrassed capitalist". In my opinion, there's some truth to that. Everyone sees themselves on an upward trajectory. So one day they might be subject to the laws that are levied against the millionaires and billionaires.
But I think there's another similar concept. And it has to do with IP. That people defend IP holders, because they secretly think that they may create something of value one day. To be honest, that's what I am. I fancy myself as a creator. So when I look at laws that inhibit the rights of creators, I'm very wary. It's not bootlicking. It's ensuring that my rights aren't encroached on. It's securing my path. You could call it bootlacing.

read the license agreement. its either on the back of the box as a URL, an insert inside the box, or is shown to you when you launch the software. you bought either a digital license or a disc with certain resources on it. you do not own any of the assets, models, scripts or code. you bought a license under certain terms.

Since the damage is experienced by a third party, that is the definition of a externality, and thus the price mechanism cannot fix this issue. Externalities are to be solved by the state.

you know right that museum do tell you that you have to be out of the building by night and do not suddenly revoke your ticked with no reason? You know right you can buy a painting and if you do buy it, it is your in perpetuity.

>>714476170The analogy is sound.
You buy a ticket to a museum for a limited period of time to engage with something.
You buy a license to a game for a limited period of time to engage with it.
Itโs precisely the same.
You are not entitled to force the museum to provide you a method of recreating the art at home.
You are not entitled to force the developer to provide you a method of recreating the gameplay experience when support ends.

Many courts have declared certain terms as non-binding, other courts have determined certain terms as binding. It is on a case-by-case basis. I suggest reading more case law instead of cherrypicking ideas you agree with. You are calling for a law to ban thing you donโt like instead of establishing legal standing in a courtroom as part of a lawsuit. Again, you agree to the rules of chess then scream the other person cheated when you lose.

>>714477024We're weigh two sets of rights. One is for the people who own their own creations to have the rights to keep their creations. Even if consumers *perceive* that they have the right to own it. Do they really own it?
The other is for consumers to have access to what they think they bought. Even if the creators perceive that they can gate people off.
So ultimately, we have to decide which is the weightier issue. Because the purchasers are only purchasing video games, then their issue is in fact, too trivial to outweigh the issue of creators safeguarding their creations.

I set up a WoW Burning Crusade server with 6000 bots on my home PC (Ryzen 7800X3D), and played on it using the same machine. The CPU barely felt the load. Granted TBC is almost 20 years old and you could probably run the server software on a literal IoT toaster, but still, goes to show what's possible. The game was fully functional and accurate to gameplay specs. Look up SPP Classics.
Kinda funny to consider that with this, and all the various private servers out there, WoW has basically been fully SKG-compliant for years already, and it's the biggest, most genre-defining MMO around.

There isn't a downside to signing the initiative. If nothing comes of it, if nothing is done about the state of video games, at least someone tried. It's better someone at least tried to reform the lawless wasteland of video game """""""""ownership""""""""" than to let things get even worse.
>>714478284SKG wouldn't actually stop devs from making their games online-only, just stop devs from pulling the plug and making the game completely unplayable when they decide to.

>>714478363Consumer protections extend to owning the things you buy. Revocation of access to a thing you own by the person who sold it to you is a violation of those protections.
The stipulation found in most EULA's "this license can be revoked at any time" is signing away those protections. As I've stated, no contract can go above the law. Those EULA's are null and void and mean sweet precious fuck-all.
With that in mind, all such revocation of access is illegal. The only reason that it has not been acted upon is that these corps have MASSIVE legal teams and no consumer protections activists or organizations have the resources to do so.
You misunderstand the chess analogy. These are the laws. Two parties cannot simply agree that the law applies to them differently, just like two players cannot just change all the rules in chess.

>>714479101Yes, that is actually correct. You'd have to be fucking retarded to somehow buy a game you don't like

>>714478845I dont give a shit, this bullshit is ruining whole IP's, its a cancer and its spreading into everything.
>>714479150They already tested this in the UK while it was still part of the EU, in 2010:
https://www.williamfry.com/knowledge/when-a-perpetual-licence-does-not-mean-what-it-says-on-the-tin/
> The Court stated that โperpetualโ can carry different shades of meaning, it can mean โnever endingโ (i.e. incapable of being brought to an end) or โoperating without limit of timeโ (i.e. the licence was of indefinite duration, but subject to contractual provisions governing termination). The Court held that the latter interpretation was applicable.> The Court held that the latter interpretation was applicable.So, what have we found out? That perpetual licenses are infinite in time but can still be terminated under terms dictated in said license.

>>714479137>groomer buddiesMaldavius? Yes, we know.
>>714479137this is the new Bluesky tactic. Hasan does it too, just call every single person against you a pedo. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
>>714479891Pedo is the new nazi. Watch it get watered down just like the word nazi
>>714479813>That perpetual licenses are infinite in timeBut they aren't. The license lasts only as long as the software is supported.
Under either definition of "perpetual", developers are in violation of consumer protections.
>>714480010there's perhaps a bit of that in it as well, but I think it's moreso that these cretins are projecting, as they always do. They do it with the feminist shit too

letโs repeat:

>>714480435my revulsion is because you're a jeet
>>714480182So, revocation of what you own at any time, for any reason? That's what the EULA states?
Then it's illegal. I will repeat this until my fucking keyboard breaks: CONTRACTS CANNOT OVERRIDE THE LAW.
As those EULA's are FUCKING ILLEGAL, the defaults of consumer protections are in play. Those contractual provision are MEANINGLESS.
The seller then has no right to revoke any access, and if they do, they should face civil, possibly criminal, consequences.

:^)
>>714471870>They aren't. Why? Because I said so>Copyrighted servers (lol)>Just releasing server hosting files is conveniently missing from argumentWhy is every poster I see who is against this movement so dishonest in their arguments
>>714481073Shills don't need to be honest, juat obfuscate the truth and chip away at morale.
Petition?
Succeeding.
Pirate fanboys?
They seething.
How am I doing?
Great feeling.
Industry shills?
They reeling.
>>714480805You're god damned right I am.
Out-dated laws, know-nothing judges, and corporate cock-riders are going to turn us all into slaves that own nothing and are miserable.
I can't see how you're not "worked up" about it.
>>714480964Legal precedent agrees with me bro, and youโre going to be very, very upset when the EU does nothing with this.
>>714476629>>714477243>>714477682wow, a genuinely brain-damaged amerimutt retardditor
amazing, but also embarrassing to even look at
please say SIKE right now dude lol
>>714481184>I seethe and cry over a mere petition because I uh...have uh..legal precedent (no I will not cite caselaw) and I've very confident for SERIOUS KEK
>>714481262I know this is a good step forward because of the amount of pure asspain I see over the mere idea of maybe a corporation not getting its way
>>714481262Except case law has been cited more than once.
>>714479813>>714478702You are foaming.
>>714480273pfff you fucking with lmao
you're literally the first type (retarded contrarian)
here's your (You) lol
>>714481073Are you retarded? Show me which law allows you to reverse engineer a proprietary server just to make your client software work. I'll wait.
>Copyrighted servers Yes, content delivered by servers is copyrighted and so is server logic. That's why reverse engineering code based on leaked source code of proprietary software is against the law.
Reverse engineering servers is not something that's tested in any court. That's the only reason why private servers aren't all nuked. No company wants to risk losing that battle so they prefer suing people illegally delivering a competitive service based on their own proprietary/copyrighted stuff.
>Just releasing server hosting files is conveniently missing from argumentAre you even following the actual conversation or did you just read something you don't like and wanted to cry about it?
>>714481571read the part about 'commercial agent' again you retarded faggot
HAHA
>>714481683Read the part again about:
> โoperating without limit of timeโ (i.e. the licence was of indefinite duration, but subject to contractual provisions governing termination). The Court held that the latter interpretation was applicable.retarded faggot
>>714481571>You are foaming.says the retard literally crying and sobbing over a petition that he claims
>won't do anything because erm my misunderstood case law that is only ancillary related anyhowyet is still pissing and shitting himself over
xD
>>714466898That's such an apt opinion it's crazy we dont see the likes of it more frequently.
>>714481748read the part about 'commercial agent' again you retarded faggot
This is why laymen trying to play armchair lawyer is always so fucking funny
>>714481882why are you conflating two separate cases? why canโt you argue in good faith and stop spamming the thread with your retarded samefagging?
>>714481882>This is why laymen trying to play armchair lawyer is always so fucking funnyironic lol
>>714481571For the last fucking time.
CONTRACTS DO NOT OVERRIDE THE LAW.
If you are sold a thing in perpetuity, you must, by definition, own said thing. A seller cannot simply say take-backs and just take it from you. When someone takes something you own without consent, THAT IS THEFT.
THEFT IS AGAINST THE LAW.
YOU CANNOT CONSENT TO THEFT.
No, I don't give one flying FUCK about some backwater court in Bongland being pantsu-on-head RETARDS.
>>714481951>now he's trying to obfuscate and blame it on 'samefags'You are so fucking mad it's unbelievable, the mere whiff of your masters having to give up some meaningless power sent you into a frothing rage
HAHAHAHA
>>714482063>>714481951>cries samefag>samefagshmmmmmm
hey so I'm going to close the thread now but it was funny seeing the rats lose their fucking minds. Remember: the thread will 404 but the petition was still successful and you will still be upset
>>714461583>software preservationbut you already can?
are you retarded?
>>714482106You are licensed a thing without a defined limit of time, until you hit a point of revocation.
If the terms allow for revocation, then the license can be removed. This is not hard to understand.
Go buy a house and stop paying taxes. See how long you get to keep the house for.
>>714482152embarassing
>>714482127still no argument against:
> > โoperating without limit of timeโ (i.e. the licence was of indefinite duration, but subject to contractual provisions governing termination). The Court held that the latter interpretation was applicable.for the 2010 case, instead doubles down on conflating the cases, and projects his seethe onto others.
