Digital Preservation? Not In My Profit Margins

The ultimate digital irony: Netflix shutting down games forever while the EU waves its "Stop Killing Games" flag in the background. It's the corporate equivalent of saying "I can't hear you over the sound of my profit margins!"

This perfectly captures the disconnect between streaming giants and digital preservation. While gamers and regulators beg for ways to preserve online games after servers go offline, Netflix just hits the mute button and keeps serving those sweet, sweet streams.

The real punchline? Those "forever offline" games are just lines of code that could totally be preserved—if anyone with power actually cared about digital heritage instead of quarterly earnings. Meanwhile, pirates are in the corner thinking "challenge accepted."
