Actually good regulations targeting the most manipulative of game designs.
You missed the bit that game companies have to have their servers physically located in China.
Hasn't it been like that for decades now?
Abso-fucking-lutely.
Absolutely mental that it takes a full-on authoritarian government directive to sort out wildly exploitative practices in video games
