Related: when I was writing game conversions in the 80s, some publishers would insist on a cheat code in the game. The idea was that once the initial sales had died down, the games mags would publish the cheat code, and it would boost sales briefly. (Yes, all those "secret cheat codes" in the games mags were actually given to them by the publishers. You were fourteen and thought it was a real secret. Not your fault.)

All mine were abuse directed at the leader of the government and her cronies. They didn't get published
