Anti-gaming sentiment

Influencers on short-form video platforms are exploiting anti-gaming sentiment by amplifying parental anxieties about video games and screen time. They position themselves as “family education experts” and sell expensive “internet addiction” programs, some costing upwards of $66,800 for seven days. Investigations reveal that these influencers often lack proper qualifications, raising concerns about the validity and ethics of their services and highlighting the exploitation of vulnerable parents.
