"digital ownership" LOL
People need to realize that most of the things they buy are actually rented.
Same goes for Facebook pages, Spotify/Apple songs, Amazon books, Google/Apple developer accounts. If you don't really own it and can control it, it's not yours ;-)
- tracker1 3y agoI think the FTC should push for the term "Lease" and a lifetime guarantee that is disclosed in simple terms before purchase beyond EULA boilerplate. Lifetime being the life out minimum life of the lease. You shutdown the servers before a player got N years, full cash refund to those players. What happened now is clearly deceptive practice.
- wodenokoto 3y agoNo, legislators need to realize that most digital assets sold are actually leased and that they need to punish companies misleading consumers. It’s the perpetrators that are at fault, not the victims.
