idk, I'd say it's more of a problem now because people have easier ways to liquidate their wallets for those sorts of trash purchases, without realising it on a physical / rational level at the time. Like when you had to go in to a store to buy those blind-box card games, it took effort to be an addict, so much that it was more a hobby.
Now, someone's kid can accidentally wrack up thousands on a credit card online buying lootbox shit.
