YouTuber Accursed Farms Faces Allegations Amid Campaign Success
The Stop Killing Games initiative has gained significant traction, with over 1.4 million signatures on its EU petition titled “Stop Destroying Videogames.” However, Ross Scott, a prominent YouTuber supporting the campaign, claims he is facing false allegations aimed at disrupting this momentum. In a recent video, Scott described these accusations as a "shot across the bow." The criticism stems from a complaint that suggests Scott's promotion of the petition violates financial disclosure rules. The complaint estimates his contributions range between $73,000 and $170,000 due to his extensive involvement. While Scott insists he is not an organizer of the petition, he highlights that he has communicated with EU representatives to ensure transparency in his support. It remains unclear who filed the complaint, but suspicions point towards either competitors in the video game industry or an antagonistic individual online.
Key Takeaways

Scott highlights the aggressive nature of the complaint.
"The official organizers literally asked EU representatives if it was okay for me to assist them... and they said, ‘What I’ve been doing is fine.’"
Scott defends his involvement and the legitimacy of his contributions to the petition.
This incident illustrates the friction between independent creators and corporate interests. Scott's allegations suggest that companies, possibly fearing regulatory scrutiny, may seek to discredit voices they find challenging. As campaigns like Stop Killing Games gather support, the response from industry players could signal a critical moment in how video game preservation is approached. The outcome of this situation will not only impact Scott but may also set a precedent for how grassroots movements interact with established entities in the tech space.
Highlights
