As a sideproject I got Zandronum working on a web browser here: https://t.co/tpkRcAv0YC
It's a small demo only with freedoom, but it has a lot of potential. I think this is the only browser-port of something in the UZDoom/GZDoom family? #indiedev#gamedev
In one of our larger stress tests for FUA https://t.co/tpkRcAvyOa we even got Complex Doom + Sunder in a playable state within a web browser. Normally it completely freezes up in Zandronum/UZDoom/GZDoom

I 100% agree with the message but not the implementation. The issue isn't really the actual gameplay itself, but rather the social aspects.
Kids...
- Should not be able to run a credit card dry.
- Shouldn't be able to befriend strangers online.
- Shouldn't spend their formative years exploring the darkness of the human heart with online strangers.
Every single issue is ultimately a social issue. In an ideal world, yes, parents should raise their kids better but clinging to that philosophy does no one good.

Is there a way to enforce this without compromising privacy? Probably not. But one can wish
