Something like that :

The National Digital Ownership Registry (NDOR) is proposed as a government-backed registry that records and certifies the lawful ownership of digital goods purchased by individuals. The registry would establish digital purchases as legally recognized property rather than merely contractual licenses, ensuring that consumers retain permanent proof of ownership regardless of changes affecting publishers, marketplaces, or distribution platforms.

The registry would not replace existing digital storefronts but would provide an independent legal record of ownership that protects consumers, promotes competition, and preserves cultural heritage.

Edit :

For privacy, users should be able to choose what information they share with the NDOR.

I intentionally did not specify a particular country because I wanted this proposal to be applicable to as many people as possible. It is designed so that any country interested in strengthening digital ownership rights could adopt and implement it.

A game's registration should include all of its updates, patches, and editions released as part of the same product. However, any remaster, remake, or reboot shall be treated as a separate work and require a new registration.

Edit 2 :

If a platform removes your purchased content, you could verify your ownership through the NDOR. Once ownership is confirmed, the platform, publisher, or another authorized distributor would be required to restore access or provide an equivalent copy at no additional cost. If the original provider is no longer able to distribute the content, the NDOR would ensure that another legally authorized source honors your ownership.
