A Promotions Task Force
While McDonald’s continues to run Monopoly sweepstakes promotions, it has created an “independent promotions task force” to prevent similar conspiracies from happening in the future. The scheme was not the first or last time that a person rigged a competition that was meant to rely on luck. In 1998, a couple of years prior to the trial, a Nevada Gaming Control Board agent was arrested on charges of racketeering. This person designed a computer program to game slot machines in Reno, Las Vegas, and Lake Tahoe. In 2010, a Multi-State Lottery Association director also came up with a computer code that would cheat the random-number generators. This was how he “predicted” the winning lottery numbers.
The Aftermath Of The Controversy
The most recent development in the story is the HBO series, although there is also a chance that a movie will be created by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The former is going to star in it, while the latter is going to be the director. However, they have yet to announce more details about it. We will probably learn more about it in the near future. In 2019, a British Labor Party politician by the name of Tom Watson asked McDonald’s to stop its Monopoly campaign and its efforts to encourage people to buy fast food. “It is clear that McDonald’s Monopoly is a danger to public health,” he said. However, this did not stop the company from running it anyway. It said that people could find puzzle pieces from their salads and carrot bags, explaining, “Customer choice is at the heart of everything we do.”
