App Store games

[Aractus]

I was using the example to show that Apple is known to rort customers by a. not paying any taxes, and b. not abiding by their obligations under the law. They know exactly what they're doing with in-app purchases, they're not designed for consumer benefit they're designed as a cascading part of their ponzi profit pyramid; and they're doing something that is not only morally wrong, but socially destructive as well because it creates an environment that when children play these games in particular, they are being exposed at a very young age to an intentionally addictive form of electronic entertainment similar to EGMs, and it is well known that children who develop addictive behaviours are more likely to experience addictive problems as adults. And this leads to crime, as well of course to many, many other problems. I can't stress this fact enough: any app-based games that has in-app purchases is totally inappropriate for children (anyone under 18), it is much better that they play any other video games that are not designed to throttle progress based on in-app purchases.
