State Duma deputies have proposed introducing a mechanism in Russia for self-banning payments in games.
The authors of the initiative believe that this will help protect adolescents and other vulnerable groups of citizens from impulsive spending.
A corresponding appeal has already been sent to the head of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation, Maksut Shadaev.
The introduction of a mechanism for self-banning in-game payments will protect adolescents and other vulnerable groups of citizens from impulsive spending in online games.
According to parliamentarians, the system can be implemented on the basis of "Gosuslugi". Users should be able to voluntarily set a block for a certain period of time or make it indefinite.
The technical features of the mechanism are not specified.
