Attorney General James Sues Game Developer for Promoting Illegal Gambling Through Video Games
NEW YORK – New York Attorney General Letitia James today sued Valve Corporation (Valve), a video game developer, for illegally promoting gambling through video
Today everything gets sold. Even kids think to sell things first these days. Garbage Pail Kids were just shared in my neighborhood. All the trendy toys end up in drama threads, and I have no idea wtf the item is. It's always one set of parents think the kids should just have fun with the toy, and the other set of parents know the value of the trendy toy so they want their kid to end up with the expensive one so they can sell it.
They're teaching the kid to be materialistic, which only helps sell loot boxes.
Yeah I grew up with Pokémon cards and realized they were a scam very early on. Kids would look up rare cards, find clueless kids who had them and conned them out of it.
Those kids are having kids, and teaching them to be just like that. The kids with parents how I was raised don't stand a chance. Everyone on my street had GPK, but only half the parents bought them. We just shared, and traded them.
When my kids were kids, I noticed some of their friends never opened toys. How boring.
