@LukeAlmighty Classic EU moment.

>This is due, also, to existing intellectual property rights. Under EU copyright law, rights holders enjoy exclusive rights over their creations. In addition to copyright, other intellectual property rights may also be relevant as they may protect different visual and technological aspects of a video game.

Use case for more consumer rights?

@phnt
No, this is way worse...

For ONCE... For ONCE I was sure that the grand tyranical EU, who literally never miss an oportunity to grab more power over the lives of the people have a chance to do so, and they refuse to give themselves more power?

How is that even possible? They love power. They worship the power to put their collosal nose straight into every single process of a slave's live. I was sure they will grab it.

And... this is the one time they choose the "liberty".

We have days, when it's forbidden to go to work FFS!!! They love this power more then money, obviously....

Ah, I saw a thread a week or two ago about how some commissioners on the case got invited to fancy dinners with Ubisoft and others where they would "discuss the issue".
