Built a userscript that checks the publisher on Steam and GOG game pages against the Stop Killing Games Dead Game List. If the publisher has shut down always-online titles before, you get an amber banner with the reason.

Currently flags 16 publishers: Ubisoft, EA, Microsoft/Activision, Warner Bros, Bandai Namco, Sony, Square Enix, 2K, NCSoft, SEGA, Capcom, Rovio, Gameloft, NetEase, Nexon, Atari.

Open source, no tracking, dismissible banner.

    Technically, Steam could also have this happen if the rights holders demand they stop distributing their game entirely, unless they have a clause in their specific contracts to let Valve keep giving it out to people who bought it forever.
