US lawmaker proposes bill granting real ownership of video games
Original: US Rep proposes bill to give video game buyers "ownership," not "a license"
A US representative has introduced a bill that would give people who buy video games actual ownership of their copies, rather than the current system in which purchases are treated as revocable licenses. The proposal responds to growing frustration over game shutdowns and removals from digital storefronts, which have left buyers unable to access titles they paid for. Gamers and digital rights advocates have long pushed for clearer consumer rights in digital purchases.
Why now: Concerns over publishers revoking access to purchased digital games have renewed attention on consumer ownership rights.
