Looks like truancy is a big issue in Hamburg, Germany and the state minister has decided there is a direct correlation between truancy and demo kiosks. He is asking for all demo pods to be turned off during school hours, which I think makes some sense but what about adults that would like to demo certain games during a lunch break?

The minister has stated that:

Truancy can be the beginning of a criminal career and that’s why we have to intervene. Not every truant becomes criminal, but criminals skipped school at one time or another.

Quite the profound statement! I also believe that criminals at some point in their lives have drank water, perhaps a ban on water?

Thanks Princess o for the tip.
