I’ve been wodnering how regulations about not killing games deals with compaines running multi-player servers?
For single player games or games with single player modes it seems easier to implement.

My hope is legislation will force companies to release private server options.
This.
This was the standard for years. Matchmaking kinda killed it.
There were 3rd part server browser services that could fill the gap, though. I wanna say GameSpy or something was a popular one in the late 90s
Multiple approaches have been suggested - from local multiplayer (which can potentially be extended to the internet) over releasing server binaries or source code, to providing documentation that allows to recreate a server.
