Opera files complaint against Microsoft’s tricks to make you use Edge

Opera has filed a complaint against Microsoft in Brazil, accusing the company of using "manipulative design tactics" to dominate the browser market and hinder competition. Opera's general counsel, Aaron McParlan, stated that Microsoft creates barriers for other browsers, such as excluding them from preinstallation opportunities and complicating the download process. The complaint highlights Microsoft's practices of overriding users' default browser preferences and using Windows features to promote Edge. Opera seeks remedies to allow PC manufacturers to preload alternative browsers and stop blocking downloads. Additionally, the complaint criticizes Microsoft's requirement for OEMs to deliver devices in S mode to receive rebates on Windows OS licenses. This action is part of Opera's broader strategy to challenge Microsoft's practices globally, including an appeal to EU courts regarding the classification of Edge under the Digital Markets Act. Opera has a history of raising concerns about Microsoft's browser practices, including a 2007 antitrust complaint that led to the creation of a browser ballot screen.

Stop Killing Games’ EU initiative hits 1.4 million signatures—and if at least 1 million are valid, it’s off to the European Commission

The "Stop Killing Games" initiative, led by YouTuber Ross Scott, has gathered over 1.4 million signatures as part of the European Citizens' Initiative, surpassing its initial goals. The initiative aims to advocate for an end-of-life plan for video games, allowing them to be modified or patched to remain operational without ongoing support from developers. Concerns about potential signature-spoofing campaigns have prompted the movement to collect an additional 400,000 signatures as a buffer. Once the signatures are validated, the European Commission will respond to the demands within six months, although this does not guarantee the proposals will become law. The initiative has gained attention from industry leaders, including Ubisoft's CEO, and has received support from a vice president of the EU parliament.
