  • This is stupid-

    You never had ownership of the game, just the physical disc that contains it. First-sale doctrine is clear about this and the perpetual non-exclusive license that allows you to play it.

    His law doesn’t change that. It’s not going to allow buyers of a game to have a stake in the IP rights.

    This stupid argument of owning physical media has always been a misunderstood argument. Pirate, emulate, and decompile when game companies make enjoying a game miserable.

    Trying to start legal fights, that have already been settled, or launching literal political campaigns, like stop killing games, isn’t targeting the core issue of buying a game being easier than pirating it.
