In this week’s discussion question 1 Chapter 9 Closing Case 1 that is on Gamer Delight. The question that I have chosen is to discuss the ethical and security issues associated with outsourcing the development of Video games (Studios, 2020). Data protection and privacy are some of the problems. Whenever the development process of the game is outsourced then the producer loses more than half of his power over the product and the other property (Studios, 2020).
