In Greece, a law was enacted in September 2002 that made playing video games illegal. Initially, the prohibition was specifically targeted at Internet cafés, where gaming was banned. However, this regulation evolved, and it is now illegal to engage in any form of electronic gaming, including video games, throughout the country. This sweeping ban reflects concerns about the potential negative impacts of gaming on society, including issues related to addiction and public order. The decision has sparked discussions about the balance between regulation and personal freedom, as well as the implications for entertainment and leisure activities in Greece.
