Never really believed anything different........The same is true of loyalty cards. The information used from those are used against you. But people are distracted rom the 10p off of whatever product.
It's no different to real life.
If you hand information over to someone else - you have delegated responsibility. Regardless of laws. Similar to a cheating partner.
They both know it hurts you. But you'll just get a sorry and have to move on......
I believe that the frontal brain regions which are, "are important for controlling emotion and aggressive behaviour", are also tested during other activities such as gardening or DIY.
Video games are not the only ones on trial here. Whatever the outcome of video games needs to be extended to films, music, plays, social holidays such as Halloween and Bonfire Night, how to mow your lawn, etc, etc.
Also, can we have some statistics on number of perceived, "video game nasties", against violent crimes. Then put that up against alcohol induced violent crime?
So I ask the question: When do we become responsible for our actions?
What's next? Statutes enforcing breastfeeding because Hitler, Pol Pot and Idi Amin were famously bottle fed? Get Wang on that one...
(I don't know whether those three were actually bottle fed. I used that statement as a hypothetical. But I'm sure I could find something equally banal but true if I had to.)
