Then they can say goodbye to most online gaming. I wonder how people will feel about this when they realize their kids can’t play games anymore?

- Ekaros 3y agoPretty good. Pretty good. I would go to argue that online games do more harm than good to children and teenagers. In many ways banning them from playing them might steer them to more productive use of time.
- serialNumber 3y agoMust children's use of time be "productive"? They have their whole lives to be productive - outright banning video games is not the solution in my eyes
- mbreese 3y agoAt the time, Fortnite and Minecraft (and more) were my son’s way to socialize with friends. That was how they hung out (pre Covid). I can honestly say it would have been detrimental to him from a mental health perspective if those outlets didn’t exist or if kids were blocked from them. Drawing the lines between what types of media are and aren’t allowed is a major issue with this type of law, regardless of if you think it’s a good idea or not.
- Dalewyn 3y agoAccording to another comment[1], video games are exempted. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39176380 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39176380
