Default South Korea to impose curfew on gamers

AKA it's the nanny state gone MAD!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8617372.stm

Quote:

The South Korean government is introducing policies aimed at curbing the amount of time children spend playing online games. The first involves barring online gaming access to young people of school age between 12am (midnight) and 8am.
The other policy suggests slowing down people's internet connections after they have been logged on to certain games for a long period of time.
But without Maplestory, they might have to actually talk to other real people!!!!111

Oh well. When Xbox Live breaks I just play singleplayer
