Playstation 2 component incites African war...
As i browse online, i came across to this article about the PSP 2, and i can't imagine that a metal used in Sony’s Play station 2 and similar devices has resulted in drastic consequences.

"Kids in Congo were being sent down mines to die so that kids in Europe and America could kill imaginary aliens in their living rooms," said Ex-British Parliament Member Oona King."
