Background: In Russia, they want to identify gamers through Sberbank, Yandex or VKIn Russia, they proposed the creation of a new research institute that will monitor video games. He will study their impact on children, conduct research and look for cruel or unacceptable moments in projects. The initiative was proposed in the committee of the Council of Legislators on Information Policy, Information Technologies and Investment under the State Duma.
So far this is just an idea, but as the results of the committee’s work show, this research institute will have to assess and minimize the impact of games on children’s health. No specific timeline or steps have been announced yet.
Previously, the same committee recommended entering gamer identification through Sber ID, Yandex ID and VK ID, and also suggested creating a register of banned games. Although the legislators have not yet provided a list of these.
We recall earlier that in Russia it was proposed to introduce an age rating system for games by analogy with PEGI.
