What in china?
A better solution would just be to require them to have a decent (any) backup solution then they could just wipe the drives and carry on.

What do you mean besides the obvious
Well I mean obviously.
God, what an awful thought
No company ever sells games with the disclaimer that they might stop supporting those games at some arbitrary point in the future they sell the games with the understanding that you are purchasing a product that you will own after you give the company the required amount of money.
They are not selling you a limited term license, they are selling you a product. They should not be allowed to then change their minds after the fact without compensating the customer.
That's the funny thing about all of this it wouldn't cost the company a single penny. All they'd have to do is open source their code that's it.
Even if you just looked at the screenshot it's pretty clear that's not what the petition is about. Could you go away and do literally one seconds worth of research, and then come back and explain why you made such a brainless comment.
One of the big problems about the original petition was that it had a focus on gaming. But this is a problem in the entire software industry, and as much as gaming is probably the more serious concern for the majority of people, it is considered by the government to be somewhat unimportant. Corporate software though has a more mature image, and so is more likely to be considered.
Any software that is sold by a company should be open sourced if the company chooses to end support. Either because the company goes out of business or because they just decide it's no longer profitable to continue updating the software, and yes, this does include older versions of iOS.
A rising tide and all that.
Finally, it encourages people to do the minimum, because the alternative is to compete for bonuses that are only going to the people who meet the highest appearance of productivity metrics
Oh yeah they called them "STAR awards" or something to try and make it look like some great achievement.
Damn for 4chan, can't be bothered to properly flesh out their fantasies
Smoke alarms contain small quantities of radioactive material. You can also bulk buy smoke alarms on Amazon. You can also buy hazmat suits on Amazon.
You have to specify a temperature or it doesn't count.
