    This is nonsensical. All this is doing is taking agency away from parents.

      I don’t see how that would be the case.

      PEGI is used as a way of informing buyers (parents) about the contents of the game.

      It doesn’t prohibit them from allowing their kids to play, say, an R-18 game. The agency’s still there. It’s not like a mandatory age verification where your kids are disallowed from using the service completely even when you yourself allow them to.
