   A bunch of gamers in France are trying to get regulators to stop game companies from shutting down online games after a few years.

   They argue that they bought a good that the seller has rendered inoperable not a service.

   This won’t work. You can’t force companies to maintain online services forever.

     @carnage4life You should be able to force companies to design products in a way that doesn’t require them to maintain services forever for the products to remain operable.
