You wouldn’t pirate a game you already paid for to be able to play it again since the company stopped supporting it and no longer sells it

I see this link posted everywhere for weeks now but like, I’ve never been able to use it. The US version of it recommends the DGCCRF which is exclusive to France or visitors thereof. It’s weird that it doesn’t recommend a US branch or have the FTC section at the top
I think there was an episode where they found out that there’s a US law that says US citizens don’t have the right to ownership of software or something like that. they’re only trying in countries where customer protection is a thing, but the practice of removing ownership of software after some time is in a gray area.

Didn’t mean to sound harsh. Not a native English speaker.
It’s still in a gray legal area in most countries or they wouldn’t even be trying. Nobody is trying to steal the intelectual property, just make it that companies can’t come years later and remove things you bought full price . It’s a matter of customer protection.

So you’re saying a company representative can come to your home at any time and take all the clothes you bought from them because they still own the rights to the design ?
Because it’s PRIMARILY about The Crew, sold by Ubisoft, a French company.
There is no US push to stop killing games like they’re doing in other countries because it’s impossible without lobbying money, which they don’t have.
yea i figured the reason might be similar to that, too bad the US just doesn’t care about consumer rights, I just find it weird they bother mentioning it on the US page if the US can’t actually use it
