摘要

背景：1978 年，魁北克省出台了《消费者保护法》（CPA），禁止向 13 岁以下儿童发布广告。从那时起，出现了新形式的数字技术和侵入性广告。分析：本文以《FIFA》系列电子游戏为案例，分析了战利品箱微交易的劝诱性质如何被视为针对儿童的广告，并探讨了国际上处理类似问题的方法。结论和影响：通过采用与欧盟和英国立法类似的措辞，魁北克省的《儿童保护法》可以进行修改，以更好地保护数字时代的儿童。

Digital Disregard: A Case for Amending Québec’s Children Advertising Legislation

Background: In 1978, the province of Québec introduced the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), which prohibited advertising to children under 13. Since then, new forms of digital technology and intrusive advertising have emerged. Analysis: Using the FIFA video game series as a case study, this article analyzes how the persuasive nature of loot-box microtransactions may be considered advertising targeted to children and explores international approaches to similar issues. Conclusions and implications: By adopting language similar to that in EU and U.K. legislation, Québec’s CPA can be transformed to better protect children in the digital age.
