I really hope that governments, especially the EU, recognise the isse server shutdowns and games being lost to history poses. It should be illegal for companies to make your already purchased games unplayable if not community hosted alternatives exist.

On that note it should also be fully legal to emulate and freely distribute any game that isn't on sale anymore. Years of cultural history are being destroyed for corporate profit.
