US Rep Proposes Bill Requiring Video Game Buyers Be Granted Ownership, Not a License

A US representative has introduced a bill aimed at ensuring that people who buy video games receive true ownership rather than a license to access them. The proposal seeks to change how digital game sales are framed, moving away from the license-based model that currently governs most purchases. The article notes that significant obstacles remain before such a change could take effect, spanning both technical challenges and the legislative process. Supporters of the idea view it as a consumer protection measure, while the path to enactment is expected to be difficult.
