MODERATORS
From what I remember of the past posts about this I did not sign it because it had some stupidly amateurish phrasing in there that did not make any distinctions between companies doing something actively to sabotage continued use (e.g. DRM), simply not selling it while copyright prevents anyone else from archiving it, simply turning off the servers for some multiplayer title, forcing always online for singleplayer titles and companies not doing something actively to change it to run on new hardware and operating systems. The way it read it was basically demanding companies do the last one forever which is never going to happen.
So you didn't sign it because you have no idea what it actually says and didn't look into it at all?
I love democracy
What I read was the actual statement on the EU petition site. If that is not representative of the actual demands of the lawmakers maybe they should have iterated a few more times before posting it there.
There's a whole FAQ which I'm sure also clarifies your problems with the initiative.
Is there a way without watching a 40 minute video?
39 questions sounds like a 5 minute read at best.
There's also FAQ that on the initiative page but the video is more comprehensive (43 questions instead of the 17 on the site) because it's made after the initiative FAQ and goes more in-depth concerning the specific grievances people brought up. And I didn't expect anyone to listen to the whole video, the video is timestamped so you could find whatever specific grievance you might have.
