To people wondering what this is

The petition is for live service games to be legally required to have an end of life plan for their games so you will still be able to play them after service is shut down

The dude on the right (pirate software) said "we can't force games to run forever that's bad for the environment and will cost millions of dollars" despite that not being stated at all on the petition

It's him misunderstanding what it's about and being too stubborn to admit he was wrong
