    Nanny state strikes back.

    This is the future the USA would have had if ESRB wasn't cobbled together in haste

    Government regulations are better than companies deciding what's allowed.

        They updated the article. Good.

        It's just waiting for clarification.

          They put all of theirs into a random goose.

                  Barely. Probably equally bad in some cases.

                  An educated citizenry that actively participates in government is the best solution, but we know that’s almost impossible for multiple reasons.

                    Medicinal and scientific use is legal, low-THC hemp based stuff is being made but federally speaking recreational use is still mostly illegal.

                      I would not say equally bad, citizens are at least theoretically able to influence their government in a democratic system; you have no hope of influencing the ESRB or MPAA or CCA

                        Equal “badness” in the sense of commercial/oligarchy takeover or the authoritarian nanny state. Extremes where citizen input is token at best. Russia is technically a democracy, but no regular person there has a hope of changing the government or policy with a vote.

                          Hotline Miami 2, South Park: The Stick of Truth, and Saints Row 4 are among dozens of games to have been denied an Australian release [...]

                          This is only partially true, Saints Row 4 and The Stick of Truth released modified versions in Australia. Hotline Miami 2 remains without and official release in Australia.
