It’s a weird headline, but the discussion is around how journalists and the public look through internet history in cases like this. Some of it is helpful, some of it is not.
In particular, it’s a response to this article:
The game in this case being AmongUs…
Monday night, NBC News published an article with the headline “’Extremely Ironic’: Suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO Slaying Played Video Game Killer, Friend Recalls.” This article is currently all over every single one of my social media feeds, because it is emblematic of the type of research I described above. It is a very bad article whose main reason for existing is the fact that it contains a morsel of “new” “information,” except the “information” in this case is that Luigi Mangione played the video game Among Us at some point in college.

On a phone?
CODM and PUBGM do exist
I have only played on PC. Had no idea they had a mobile game.
That would almost make me believe that they caused violence. Can’t imagine playing on a phone would be anything but frustrating.
Imagine you find out he is the top 10 rated COD mobile players. Everyone would immediately know he was a complete psycopath.
