RUU California untuk mempertahankan akses ke gim daring terus berlanjut

Rancangan undang-undang yang mengharuskan penerbit gim memberikan pengembalian dana atau tambalan agar gim daring tetap dapat dimainkan telah lolos dari hambatan komite utama di Majelis negara bagian. Aturan ini, yang dikenal sebagai Protect Our Games Act, akan berlaku untuk gim yang dirilis pada atau setelah 1 Januari 2027.

Anggota Majelis Chris Ward memperkenalkan RUU tersebut pada Februari 2026. RUU ini telah melewati Komite Privasi dan Perlindungan Konsumen, Komite Kehakiman, serta Komite Alokasi, di mana aturan tersebut disetujui melalui pemungutan suara 11-2 pada 14 Mei. Legislasi ini kini akan menuju pemungutan suara paripurna di Majelis secara penuh.
