Google removes controversial 'Slavery Simulator' game from Brazilian app store.

Google has removed a game called Slavery Simulator from its app store after it caused outrage in Brazil. The game allowed players to "buy and sell" black characters and inflict various forms of torture on them. Brazil is still coming to terms with its legacy of slavery, which was only abolished in 1888. The game had a rating of four out of five stars before it was removed. Social media users in Brazil expressed fury over the game, and a number of prominent politicians urged officials to hold tech companies to a higher standard.
