So this guy's argument is that companies with commercial websites should be forced by the government to keep their websites online for some predetermined amount of time after announcing that they will be shutting down, so that other people can pilfer the content, on the grounds that shutting down a website includes relinquishing all property rights to the content hosted there?

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that this guy isn't a lawyer.

Also, and maybe this is a stretch, but this article expresses a suspicious amount of concern for integrity in games journalism...
