Honestly I agree with your sentiment with regard to video games but not with tobacco. By this point, everyone knows tobacco is bad for you. If you choose to use and get addicted to it, that's just you exercising your bodily autonomy.

Let us not forget how these same publishers used to price gouge us on these CDs before we had any legitimate alternatives. In the '90s, they'd charge $20-$25 for an album with 10 songs on it, most of them filler. With inflation, that'd be equivalent to $40-$50 today.
Actually Facebook recently implemented a subscription service to remove ads.
You know someone is well informed when they leave a 6 word rebuttal and think they just dunked on everyone in the comment section.
