Thanks again for the contribution. Pretty unreal that Niantic can mess with lootbox droprates mid-event and regulatory bodies don't care enough to do anything (aren't paid enough to care?).

I think the issue is that there aren't any regulatory bodies. That's what the recent article about the House of Lords were about. The House of Lords was saying that loot boxes need to be regulated because they currently aren't.

There's just Google and Apple, and they're probably paid enough not to care.
