Depends which game. An MMO? I’d argue for that to be the case. A single player game? Most likely not. I haven’t played minecraft, but from what I understand there’s a client and a server, and the server hosts the game with which the client itself would be utterly useless. Maybe that’s a misunderstanding on my part.
I agree with the rest of what you said though.Moving things into the digital realm has required the law to keep up, however it’s written by rusty, old dudes paid to look the other way. And the majority of the population doesn’t understand until affected, so their voting behavior doesn’t change.
