I see what you mean and wont argue against the strong point that people are fucking stupid. So yeah, maybe only legislation can fix this …

As strange as the idea of regulations needing to come to the rescue might be to some, that's a decent way for it to go....seriously, so many problems we deal with on the daily just need a bit of regulations for them to not be as out of control as they are (because, as you said, a LOT of people are stupid/ignorant. Or are taking advantage of said people). Now, this just needs to get as bad as lootboxes--which, IMO, it's practically there, but maybe it needs to get worse, god forbid--for a legislator to look this way.
