Gambling Is Legal In Our Country But if You Promote It Online You'll Go To Jail?

[Lanatsa]

This would allow individuals to discuss their experiences while simultaneously limiting the development of gambling addiction.

I don't think that their intention is to stop gambling addiction because if they allow the citizens to gamble on casinos then they aren't giving much priority to addiction. I think their main motive behind promoting gambling is to stop majority of the citizens from knowing about gambling.

They could also do that because they might don't want young population, especially the students to take part in gambling activities. We all know that the students that become addicted to gambling could ruin their educational career and if majority of youngsters become addicts then such country can face hard times.

Yeah, government has several and different reasons why they'd decide to legalize gambling in the country. One of the major reasons would be to generate tax revenue or possibly for the purpose of promoting tourism. But this also has its disadvantages on the citizens,  gambling is so addictive and gambling addiction can have serious consequences on individuals, especially the inexperienced, naive and minors who do not really understand how gambling really works. So it's up to the government to also consider the possible negative effects of legalizing gambling and not just the potential benefits.

When it comes to tax then gambling business would really be giving out that huge numbers but it would really be depending on how much revenue that they could make but we know that once a certain gambling casino would be that operating
and becomes big then we could really be able to tell that it is really that generating income or money on which it would really be just that understandable that government would really be giving out that kind of importance but well
each country does have their own jurisdiction when it comes to things on where they would neither be banning it or would be allowing it. In regarding about into the situation or condition stated on OP about banning some ads
or those winnings from gamblers or publicly that boasting it out on which it would really be putting you up in trouble is something that contradictory.

It's true that each country do have their own laws and regulations concerning gambling. And yes it can be really contradictory and complicated at the same time when they try to actually publicize gambling wins and at the same time also trying to ban gambling ads. It's indeed a very complicated situation and a tricky balance for the government to strike, especially when it has to do with online gambling where the regulations are even more difficult to implement. Due to how tricky and complicated this situation can be, most countries have completely placed a ban on gambling while some other countries still believe they can regulate it by employing some measures. Like requiring licenses from online gambling sites or imposing of taxes on winnings.

Yes, it would be something still be thankful with those gamblers who do reside into those countries which do still allow on playing gambling compared into those places which had totally banned out gambling.
Each country does have their own approach when it comes to gambling on where there are ones who are really that banned it completely and there are ones who are been allowed. It would really be just that a matter of rules and regulations of course and as a citizen then just like on what i have said that you wont really be having any options but to go along on what been stated or been that put up.

Good thing that government is really that still minding about their citizens condition or in having that concern about trying to lessen out when it comes to possible addiction.
This is why it isnt really that a bad idea for them to have that kind of approach on which they wont really be that trying out to allow those kind of possible exposure of wins
because it can actually trigger out that kind of addiction problems when people would really be trying out to play.

the laws will really be strict in a country especially if they see its effect on the people, and it is necessary to follow it in order to respect the decision of the government. Why is the promotion of gambling prohibited when gambling is legal in the country? There are many possible reasons, but the first one here is the wrong way of promotion, which many minors see and possibly imitate, just to avoid that even young people may become addicted to gambling.

It may not seem as if it makes any sense, but as stated before there are some products which are legal but that are not allowed to advertise, what this means is that the government does not want to go through the trouble of actually banning something that people like and that realistically they have no way to really ban, however they are trying to reduce the rate at which people use that product, and an effective way to achieve this goal is to forbid those products to advertise.

It's understandable for some products, such as some countries have restrictions on advertising products such as condoms, however, the use of the product or the production isn't illegal and it is sold without any problems but they just don't allow you to advertise the product for some reason. There are many things such as that, however, this is something completely different than gambling and casinos.

They might be doing this to prevent the youth from getting addicted to gambling or starting gambling, but there must be other ways of doing this. It shouldn't be allowed on TVs, and advertisements shouldn't be allowed online by platforms, but if an individual is discussing about it, that shouldn't be a problem.

I agree on that, but politicians very often create laws that are too overbearing and that the police have no way to enforce, after all what could they possibly do to achieve this, listen to every single conversation online and offline that people have with each other and arrest anyone that mentions gambling in any way? This is impossible, and even if it was, it would lead to a backlash against the politicians that passed such laws as the privacy of millions will be infringed just to implement this law.

This is kinda weird cause limiting the act on social platform is surprising, I have never heard of such information and this is my first time hearing such law. Despite the law I believe there's something behind the law or are they trying to protect their reputation or what will trigger such decision. Online gambling is just the same as gambling casino so what's the point. Although some countries can be so sensitive when it comes to the public in terms of other stuffs, this is just normal cause you don't except a country to showcase everything out to the public that's why you see people with little knowledge about other countries but I still don't understand this law concerning gambling.

It isn’t about online gambling but about publicizing any gambling content online. And from what I understand, especially if the content you’re posting is capable of luring someone to gamble. So even if it’s a casino at a store and you didn’t gamble online, you should still not post about it (your winnings, etc)

The police will only act when they know what is right and what is wrong, but when looking at gambling sites, this depends on existing government policy. There are some places that provide gambling permits and there are also those that strictly prohibit gambling places, no matter how small, whether it be through online or offline. The government must be wiser in making laws and must go through discussions first, perhaps with gambling developers, to see whether they agree with the laws that will be created or not.

I do not know the rules of your country but in my country police can't go against the rule of the government. So, if the advertisement is illegal then police can take action based on the government rule.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The truth is that it doesn't seem strange to me, I would call it a dictatorship, because in the country where I am, casinos are not Prohibited , but they put in place a law that if you speak badly of the current government they can put you in prison, so if they are capable of doing something like that, that seems so stupid to me, why can't they do something that has to do with money ? It is not within the normal parameters, but I believe that we as people deserve freedom and that freedom must coexist at all times, whether to say what you want on the networks, so if Gambling is prohibited in a country, it is an activity It is Dangerous to do some Marketing, however Anonymity and protecting Yourself well with a good security Protocol by making publications where the IP cannot be detected is Possible , sometimes irreverence is not bad in situations where those rights are skewed.

Yeah, I think weird is exactly what you can call this but I normally see this kind of behavior among some Muslim and asian countries and the perfect example would be Korea, they are very limited to what is happening and social media at large and I believe there are even result of people being arrested because of such habits of even posting their things online not to talk of gambling related content, I guess your jail sentence will be very certain.

Even if you think that a law can be unjust or it does not make sense, just make sure to follow it if you live there, as there is no point on getting in trouble with the police just because you could not help yourself and you posted something on your social media accounts which can be interpreted as a way to promote online gambling to others, now this kind of self-censorship can be difficult at first, as most people are not used to think before posting something online, but it has to be done.

Their objective might be control of online spreading of gambling and gambling related affiliate content out there. Most of the religious sects will abhor gambling and it might be related to those in such countries as well.

After all people will still gamble even after governments put restrictions on them by some or the other bypass methods. So just let these bills come and go, they dont really make an impact on the people. Online gambling is so easy and accessible to common people even minors today.

The truth is very strange, that can happen in a country where there is a lot of corruption, in the country where I lived things are not like that, they are not so strict, but they are not super corrupt, in fact there is a problem of this style if the person talks to the official and gives him money, everything remains there, at that point unfortunately is the country where he lived, claor is not very far from all the aises, who in one way or another can do this type of business below from the table, now in the country I am in the socsas are more legal, but the system itself has meant that here also the need and the low salary make them start to be a little more corrupt.

I think it is like that,the government does not want people to spread gambling to other people but to keep it to themselves,they want to not increase the number of people who gamble and keep those who do in control in order to keep society in line.Most of gamblers let's speak the truth are "degenerates" degen for short as they call each other in the chats of well known casinos so trying to keep them in place is somewhat a good idea,it will absolutely not work as people who love gambling will continue to gamble while others will follow,the government is just telling everyone to shut up and to not promote it,as for yourselves do what you fucking care.

[Mia Chloe]

That's a quite strange law because they are allowing gambling casinos and outlets to work without any restriction but when someone talks about it they will get penalized. If they really don't like gambling then they should take proper actions against the casinos and those lotto outlets, however, i they don't want to do that then they should allow citizens to talk about betting.

Of course the law definitely seems weird. At first sight the image that would likely strike a person's mind is that of which the country is making up that law just to make sure that they are efficiently taxing regular and traditional legal casinos. The law seems to be posing some kind of weird restriction especially for gamblers who are either familiar with online Gambling or prefer it to the traditional Gambling. Therefore it would be kindof difficult for online Gambling lovers to figure out new casinos while still trying to make sure that the casino isn't a scam one.
This is part of the reason why the type of Gambling activity gamblers in a particular location or region tend to prefer is partly dependent on the laws of that region. It won't be surprising to notice that people on such a location would be more familiar with traditional casino Gambling than online Gambling.

[SamReomo]

I agree, in such regions gamblers will most probably try to go to traditional physical casinos instead of doing much on the online casinos.

The rules and law often cause fear in the minds of the gamblers and that's why they might try their best to avoid online casinos so they won't get any trouble from government.
