Slavery Simulator

Google has removed a Portuguese-language game that allowed players to trade and torture Black virtual "slaves" while strategising to block the abolition of slavery. The move came after a racism outcry in the country, and the prosecutor's office has opened a "hate speech" probe into the game downloaded by hundreds of people.

Google has withdrawn a gaming app that allowed players to buy, sell and torture virtual "slaves" after a racism outcry in Brazil.
