Please tell me everyone has figured out that all large companies are pure fucking evil
Fixed that for you
I agree that microtransactions and loot boxes in gaming need regulation as well. Hopefully this is a step towards that.
Any protections to consumers are a win. I think overall this will be a positive for gamers.
IMHO this ruling is shortsighted and pushes for a future with increased monitisation that isn’t in the box value of the game and targets to hurt the Devs that make consumer friendly games while giving games with loot boxes and microtransactions an advantage in the market when talking in terms of overall sales for the devs.
Your last paragraph could hold some truth if publishers think this will affect profits. I don’t know if this would significantly impact profits since we’re talking about a new secondary market that did not exist in the digital space before. There’s probably some historical data for how physical used game sales affect new game sales but it might be hard to quantify since that market has existed pretty much from the beginning.
I would anticipate another across the board price increase for games as a result, but I see this more as an excuse for greed on the publishers’ parts rather than a cost to offset any actual lost revenue.
Because the goal of capitalism is to chase infinite profits and raze the earth in the process. Providing you with convenience or value or helping any human is not a part of this process.
The only thing I would add to this is carefully use a hair dryer to loosen the adhesive on the sticker first. Should leave less mess for the goo gone to deal with.
Most companies deploy management software on their mobile devices. They have the ability to monitor activity and do things like remote wipe the device if you’re fired. On iPhone go to settings->general->vpn and device management to see if anything’s there.
Businesses of a different industry can use the same name. There is nothing keeping you from using the website for blogging. The computer store might be problematic if it could be construed you are trying to profit from EA’s established trademark. Also, why would you want a .org for a storefront? I’d say get a different domain for your computer store.
