This basically boils down to "read the terms & conditions", which isn't unreasonable.

If a game states in its terms that access may be revoked at any time and you buy the game, then you have no reason to be surprised when access is eventually revoked.

Obviously when terms aren't clear enough or intentionally obfuscated, that's indeed an issue for legislation to act upon.

Why wouldn't it be legal?

All this wouldn't be necessary if gamers would just stop buying games that are obviously live services with remote kill switches.

Lemmy users will cancel this for not being hardwired to defederate with Threads :^)

I will now attempt to invalidate your opinion by parroting the words "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish". :^)

But the entire point of E2EE is that you don't need to trust them.

There's a point to be made for web apps, but with their client apps, the source code that encrypts your data is right there.

and now that a new owner is taking them all

But they're E2E encrypted? I don't understand the issue here.

It's already illegal if your content is large enough to be copyrightable.

Don't hope, be prepared. Back up your games.

How else do you expect the moderators of that sub to keep out raiders and spam bots?

Who cares as long as it says "Microsoft bad"

The last major holdout that is also financially dependant on Google. Chromium has consumed the internet in all but name.

Welcome to Lemmy. You may only advocate for Firefox.

That's hardly React's fault. Blame the web devs to jump into making websites after having completed a 2-week React bootcamp and nothing else.

Well, in that case you should never publish your code anywhere.

Thing is, people don't need the Discord experience. People need the people and servers that are on Discord.

By that logic, is not updating for several months incorrect behaviour?

If so, that would be quite problematic, since even other rolling distros like Tumbleweed don't have this problem.

Holy shit you're elitist

How is Valve using Proton a grey area?
