I just received this email saying that the response “did not respond directly to the request of the petition”
You recently signed the petition “Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state”: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/659071
The Petitions Committee (the group of MPs who oversee the petitions system) has considered the Government’s response to this petition. They felt the response did not respond directly to the request of the petition. They have therefore asked the Government to provide a revised response.
When the Committee receives a revised response from the Government, we will publish this and share it with you.
Thanks, The Petitions team UK Government and Parliament
So nothing but bitch. Gotcha.
But the petition isn’t going to work so you’ve also done nothing.
It already has done much more than you give credit for. People are talking about it. More importantly, legislators are talking about it, which is the first step for things for laws to change/clarify what it means to own a digital product in the UK.
Well, I don’t live in the UK, so it’s not for me to sign, and I wasn’t talking about this specific thing.
Have you helped anyone lately? Try it. It feels better than bitching endlessly online.
