US Lawmaker Introduces "Power To The Players Act" to Protect Digital Game Ownership

US Representative Ritchie Torres has announced plans for legislation, dubbed the "Power To The Players Act," aimed at forcing game publishers to respect digital game ownership. The proposal seeks to direct the Federal Trade Commission to establish rules protecting consumers' ability to transfer and resell purchased games, and to require offline play options before online services are shut down. This initiative addresses concerns over revocable licenses for digital purchases.
