In Effect, Kian Brose, a Minecraft Server creator and modder highlights, in his video, several perceived consumer protection violations that Mojang had allegedly violated.
A blanket ban on "guns and weapons" quickly blew open a litany of actions that Mojang had potentially done such as hidden clauses, unilateral unnotified changes to EULA (which is a contract), which could give Mojang free will to axe anyone at will for no reason, or that these actions can allow them the future power to do so anyway.
It ties directly into other cases, such as Mojang's EULA forbidding gambling, but still doing it anyway, and how countless children became addicted. Another minor note hinted at anti-competitive practices that might have been executed by Mojang.
There is also mention of EU law protections, but how government offices tend to be weak-willed at complying with the regulations.
I have to ask you, the reader the question: Is this a dangerous precedent within Sweden (Mojang's home country), The EU, or the wider world? What do you think should happen? Even if you are or aren't a gamer, what are your opinions on this? Could this leak into the wider software industry as well?
