nuuu i always thought it was! so sad

nobody reads the terms of service, ever.

also, no modern game companies with any relevance use a FOSS license.

so the way i see it, gamers have two options:

• stop playing videogames or
• only play supertuxkart and dwarf fortress

neither of these would happen at a scale large enough to force game studios into making their games FOSS.

the only way i can see of making this happen is by either:

• a series of very popular, targeted boycotts at studios, or
• making governments regulate the industry.

and with the second option, history has shown that only small changes have a chance of passing. effectively abolishing copyright law for software is not something the EU will ever do, no matter how many signatures a petition gets.
