    Lol what a hot take.

    No, we expect them to regulate a multi-billion dollar industry because that’s what governments do. Healthcare is a multi billion dollar industry. So is agriculture, and many others.

        What you’re missing is that after Brexit the EU is desperate to appear to citizens that they’re listening and this would be such an easy win that yeah, I really expected them to not only listen but actually get their fingers out of their collective arseholes and do something about it.

        Blah blah funding. Sure, start by targeting games that sell over X units or Y euros in revenue.

        If the article is correct then it’s a massive missed opportunity.
