Government needs to learn how to earn from these apps through taxation instead of banning them. They are often not getting what they want and thus they act like extortionists on the businesses of their country.
A lot of the youth are addicted to these games though, leading to a stagnant workforce and that is bad for the economy. I hope that improves to some extent for the younger generation. Of course circumventing these bans is also not that difficult, someone will eventually find a way or someone else will build a new app for such games.
