Protect Game Developers' and Distributers’ Rights to make and distribute games.


Protect Game Developers' and Distributers’ Rights to make and distribute games.
The Issue
Today, game developers are facing the risk of unwarranted censorship, impacting creativity and innovation within the gaming industry. This isn't just about games; it's about expression, about allowing ideas to flow freely without the fear of censorship simply because they do not fit into a certain narrow definition of acceptability.
The landscape of the gaming industry is diverse and continually evolving, and developers are at the forefront of this evolution. They bring new ideas, challenge the status quo, and provide unique experiences that enrich our culture.
However, efforts are underway to place restrictions on independent game development, effectively stifling innovative voices. These actions pose a severe threat to developers' ability to express themselves, contribute to the industry, and connect with audiences on a broader scale.
Freedom of expression is a cornerstone of our society. Allowing any form of censorship, especially one that targets a specific industry or group of creators, sets a dangerous precedent. We owe it not just to game developers, but to ourselves and future generations, to protect these rights and ensure that creativity is not squashed by unwarranted censorship.
We urge authorities in the banking and monetary transfer industry to reconsider any measures that would impose unjustified limits on game developers. Let's celebrate and protect the diversity that creators bring to the gaming industry, rather than stifle it.
We likewise urge game distribution companies not to crack or buckle under the stress that is placed upon them. We understand the difficulty that could arise, but payment processing is an open industry, and if a company pulls out of an extremely popular exchange, it’s in the best interest of another to take its place under free capitalism.
Stand with us in defending the rights of game developers and distributors. Sign this petition to oppose unwarranted censorship and support the continuation of creative freedom for all.
