They will get around it. Instead I suggest that buy buttons should say what you're buying.
For example: Just "buy" should not be allowed.
"Buy License" or "Rent Game" for games with DRM. "Buy game" where you own your digital copy and can do whatever you want with it.
We ain't ever seein' that one.
Probably not. Still "buy licence" at least gives us more transparency.
Even better, "buy non-transferable license", because that's technically what it is.
