Further in a letter from Members of European Parliament to the European Commission, emphasizing the development of legislation outside the European Union with California's Protect Our Games Act and summarizing the demands of these Members of Parliament:
- Develop a legislative proposal that explicitly prohibits the deliberate disabling of paid-for video games, after the end of support.
- Ensure consumer protection by safeguarding the perpetual right to use purchased video games, without obliging publishers to provide perpetual service.
- Promote technical solutions that allow for the continued functionality of games, such as enabling private servers or peer-to-peer alternatives, where feasible.
