Are you trolling, or do you honestly believe that it's good for governments to legally limit the amount of time people can spend doing a peaceful, victimless activity? |
But this is asia, it isn't that victimless. We literally had another story this week that a teen died:

South Korea also have/had a similar measure because I remember very well that a child was angry because he could not play a game because of the time.
Video game addiction exist but in my experience it is limited in the West while it isn't that hard to find horrible cases in asia.
I don't like the measure but something must be done but no goverment has the right answer, especially not an answer gamers on a gamer forum will like =p.
In this case, the child just continues to play on his parents account after 90 minutes and if something happens like spending a ton of money the parents are liable
