There is still 10 days left. Even though the stretch goals were met, you can still sign.

If you haven’t already and you live in the EU (they will check), you can sign here: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/

    Apple didn’t want to switch to USB-C, now they use it. Almost all manufacturers didn’t want replaceable batteries, in a short while they’ll have to. The EU, despite not being perfect, is a functioning entity and therefore can force vendors regardless of their desire.

      Apple was already using USB C everywhere else. They were using it rather early. You can debate about how fast they should kill lightning after its introduction (before USB-C was finalized), but the EU didn’t single handedly make Apple consider USB-C on iPhones.
