@helloyanis@furries.club @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu @StopKillingGames@mastodon.social @privacy@lemmy.world Not saying that people should not sign this petition, but in addition to what everyone is saying about it not being against age verification, I want to add a reminder that when they were protesting about “killing games”, some big fishes from the videogame industry went to talk privately with some of the members of the parliament and the very next day the initiative got rejected. It is unknown what they talked in the background but we can only assume what it was 💵
Signing petitions and protesting is a waste of time and people needs to realize this, its time to move on to more active means of being heard. Just a suggestion, nothing else.

@helloyanis@furries.club @StopKillingGames@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu @privacy@lemmy.world Yeah. People got heard. As if they didnt know already. Nothing is going to be done about it, everyone knows it. They’ll pay more money to shut their mouths and move on, business as usual. Believing in politicians and institutions actually doing their job is like believing in fairy tales. Its not going to happen. If people wants something done, people will have to get it by themselves. Thats how its been for decades ever since our democratic institutions got corrupted by greedy assholes.
