Project 2025 video game ban refers to a legislative proposal that seeks to prohibit the sale and distribution of video games within a specific jurisdiction, typically for a period of one year, starting from January 1, 2025.
Proponents of such a ban often cite concerns about the potential negative impacts of video games on children and adolescents, such as addiction, violence, and social isolation. They may also argue that a ban would encourage young people to engage in more traditional and wholesome activities, such as sports or reading. Opponents of a video game ban, on the other hand, argue that it would be an ineffective and heavy-handed approach to addressing the issue of video game addiction. They may also contend that such a ban would infringe on the rights of individuals to choose what forms of entertainment they consume.
