So, Second Life is going to work for real this time around? They were just ahead of their times? Really?

  Think about it more like how Tobacco companies once operated. If you can get kids to smoke young, you’ll have a lifetime smoker. If FB wants to literally create their customers, inoculate them in the first thing they will gravitate to as kids - games. It’s no surprise they were trying to make Insta for Kids, and they are keeping a watchful eye on the success of TikTok, Roblox, and Twitch. It’s better to make your customer than find your customer.

    Interesting take. And I guess tobacco companies learned from the Catholic Church.
