Listened to part of a Joe Rogan podcast, #1564 Adam Alter, who was explaining the addiction of screens in general but also specifically a well designed game. There was a game released some years ago called floppy bird, and after making a bunch of money the creator took it down after seeing how much damage it did to certain people. Some iPads and iPhones sold for 5-10K on eBay because this game was loaded on them, according to Alter. He went on to state that some people wear diapers so they don't have to stop playing. i only got about 30 minutes into the podcast, but the guy was making the argument that you could really control a large segment of a population with a game, and make them stop paying attention/being meaningful members of society.
On a completely separate note, I'm sure glad that INGO is not part of the Matrix.
Are you SURE about that?
