Outlaw in-game lootboxes and other varients
In-game lootboxes have become more and more seeded into games over the last 5 years, this now involves adults/children to spend real life monies on what's known as loot crate items, a chance of receiving some kind of perk to us in game and give a clear advantage over another player.
While not illegal in this country it is a form of gambling and is rendering children with an addictive personality leading to forms of gambling as they progress through to adult hood.
