The mistake consumption produces the Beauty association survey free online business model

(compiled/ananas) according to overseas media reports, in view of the lack of management of a number of free online games and law enforcement is not strict enough, and unknowingly led to many minors can also be in the online game consumption, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission announced that the free online game business model will be investigated. Rep.ed Markey, a representative from the Massachusetts region of the United States, sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission, stating that minors would purchase virtual items in the game without parental consent.　　As a result, the Federal Trade Commission began a survey of game studios and the content of developers selling their products in online games. The Committee is aware of the problems the game presents in the iOS platform. Many consumers may not be fully aware of the actual effect of the items they are buying on these apps in the game. U.S. Federal Trade Commission chairman Jon Leibowitz said, "We fully understand the concern that consumers, especially underage children, most of them do not understand how the consumption will lead to the consequences." We assure you that the Committee will closely monitor the behavior of manufacturers issuing such applications. "Later," when the Washington Post first reported such incidents earlier this month, I wrote a letter to the Federal Trade Commission calling on the bureau to investigate such transactions within the application, "Markey in a statement on" The U.S. Federal Trade Commission's decision ". and handed them more information about the dangers of such applications to consumers, especially underage children. "In the statement, Markey also said," those underage children in the game to buy virtual money and goods, but their parents are in the real world to pay. I'm glad the Federal Trade Commission has responded, and I'm also mobilizing developers to focus on the area as mobile apps are growing today. ”
