US lawmaker proposes bill to protect video game ownership
Original: US Rep Announces Congressional Legislation to Protect Video Game Ownership
California Congressman Ro Khanna, alongside gaming advocates, has introduced the 'Power to the Players Act,' federal legislation designed to guarantee that consumers truly own the digital video games they purchase. The bill comes as a direct response to industry moves, such as publisher shutdowns of online servers, which can render purchased digital titles unplayable. Gamers and consumer rights groups are praising the move, arguing it challenges restrictive digital licensing practices.
