  None of those are industries build on (modern) slavery and exploitation though.

  You haven’t looked very deeply at the American Football industry where Fantasy Football derives its data/basis from then, then I take it.

      Fantasy Football (gridiron) was started upon the NFL game stats. There have been repeated citations of injuries to players, including many CTE cases, and these players frequently come up through the ranks from poverty as a method to earn scholarship education and income. The exploitation occurs because for many players, this may be their best path out of low economic conditions and are coerced to play when injured, and frequently discarded by football when they become injured leaving them with nothing.

  She might be cool with and prefer a lab-grown or vintage diamond, though.

    She absolutely might be, and anon should have a discussion with her to make sure that matches her preferences and desires.
