Ads for online gambling should be banned.

[Casdinyard]

Facebook doesn't advertise casino ads AFAIK but it's the influencers sponsoring these influencers that are often the reason for the rise of casino users these days. The government these days however have more things to handle than dealing with those gambling ads. The troubled economy of each country is already weighing too much for the government but they may actually allow casinos to operate widely so they can generate more money.

Gambling ads can't be stopped by anyone, unless the website goes down or no more customers. Based on my own findings, gambling advertisements on Facebook, Twitter and other social media no longer use official accounts to reach gamblers, instead they use buzzers to advertise on social media. This is a proof if we will not able to stop the ads.

I agree with what you said because until now gambling advertisements always appear on every social media even though certain countries prohibit gambling but in fact these advertisements are still spread freely and I often see influencers broadcasting live gambling too.
In fact, is true that maybe if gambling was legalized in part of the country where gambling is prohibited, economy of that country would be better off because it gets taxes from gambling.
But all of that is still a serious problem and prefer to just advertise gambling and let it go without banning but quietly taxing it all.

In my opinion it's got something to do with Google fetching your search data and feeding you ads that fall in that particular data set. Some people call it the algorithm. YouTube does the same thing. As for the legality of gambling, it's less about morals and religious stuff and more about the fact that in most cases gambling is abused by the impoverished, so with that in mind gambling could be legalized everywhere and it would be good and great but at the same time the poor people will suffer even more since now, not only are they left penniless, they're also dealing with a gamblnig problem they just can't get rid of. So despite the fact that gambling houses are definitely helpful in boosting a country's economy, just take Hongkong for example, it's still not something that you can just legislate willy-nilly cause people will have a problem with it.

There is no central or main authority that can regulate gambling globally. Therefore, no such thing as gambling ads should be banned everywhere. Referring to the forum, gambling advertisements will continue to be freely advertised here, much especially since this is a crypto-forum.

Gambling-related advertisements can only be banned within a certain jurisdiction - e.g. by region, country, etc.

Generally, it's hard to imagine that gambling ads will be banned in most parts of the world. Gambling is even growing even during the worst situation in the world - the global pandemic. Gambling is already part of society e.g. by means of entertainment, competition, hobby, etc. and gambling-related ads will just continue to emerge anywhere.

Advertisements help spread gambling information speedier than anyone could have envisioned. Online gambling advertising cannot be excluded out because there are no specific elected authorities that would govern it, and most gambling companies make their income from the online adverts they provide to their users, most likely on websites. It can be bothersome at times because it constantly appears on your screen without your permission. These advertisements do not deceive anyone; rather, they convince one to gamble with their highlighted team of evidences and proofs from massive profits and referral bonuses.

After months of debate about betting ads, including the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, labelling them “annoying” and the opposition leader, Peter Dutton, calling for a ban on ads during sports matches, the inquiry has provided a blueprint to shut them down entirely.

If this should be implemented will it affect bitcointalk casinos? As we all know most established and new casinos come to bitcointalk to launch their ANN thread and carry out signature promotion campaigns which can be regarded as ads in a sense. If ads should be banned will their promotion in Bitcointalk also end?

I think gambling ads will never stop, unless gambling platforms decide to stop them. And if the gambling platforms close all their sites then the gambling ads will stop advertising those casinos. And currently all the gambling casinos that are on the BitcoinTalk forum are promoting signatures from which they can get new updates. However, if one of the casino platforms that are running on the signature promotion forum is shut down, I think it will never affect this forum. The casino platforms that are currently running signature campaigns are very trusted so their ads will continue to run and can definitely be considered paid ads.

Gambling advertisements will continue to run despite many restrictions everywhere because casino owners know where to advertise. But even if the casino stops its promotion, another casino will still replace the stopped casino by promoting it in other places. Casino owners can certainly find places where they can still advertise freely. And this forum provides a place for many casinos to advertise. Apart from this forum, the owners promote their casinos through social media to get more gamblers. So it should be the people who have to set what kind of ads to see and if they don't want to see gambling ads, they can block them from their social media or even their browser.

Next time when going through an article make sure you get what it's about before you run to bitcointalk to create a thread.

The article states "ads for online gambling in Australia should be banned" it's only in Australia and not the entire world so I doubt it will have any effect on bitcointalk. If it was a world wide situation which seems impossible for me that would have been a different ball game but since they're only restricting it for those in Australia then it will have effect on bitcointalk whatsoever

Well, even the call for the ban was a worldwide thing, i still think it will not affect bitcointalk in anyway, since bitcointalk is not a news outlet or a registered news media, bitcointalk is just a discussion forum and an independent one at that, So I don't think if such a ban happens worldwide, it should affect bitcointalk in anyway.

Think of it this way, Bitcoin for example is banned in some countries of the world today, but bitcoin as a discussion forum is still operational in those countries, if the government bans bitcoin, they should have also ban whatever forum where bitcoin is discussed, but they don't have such access to the forum.

Anyways, this is just my assumptions, i might be wrong.

that for sure because gambling always knows how to advertise on its own platform even though there are lots of ad blocking but there are many other ways to do that and from any application there are also gambling ads. actually this ad does not really interfere with someone activities its just that when we hold our cellphones and open one of the social media applications and the ad appears like a little embarrassed if other people know because gambling activity should be known privately but when other people find out it will be judged badly by others.
efforts to block ads will actually only be in vain because blocking one ad but another will appear again and for me the best way to get rid of this ad is to reset the phone or PC after that never open anything related to gambling because google always suggests what we are always looking for.

These ads will more or less affect us when using cellphones because the advertisements will appear often and our attention will be distracted and press on the advertisements. It has often happened where people who see an ad just skip it but over time, they become curious and eventually click on the ad and that's when they start gambling.

Maybe blocking ads can be a solution but it requires good control and self-discipline not to care about any ads that appear when we use ads. If you can do that, it means you already have good control and self-discipline.

I don't think blocking ads would impact someone's curiosity. It would only increase illegal ways to promote a casino. In my country advertisement of alcoholic beverages are banned on media. To counter it these companies came up with an alternative. They started promoting sparkling water with the brand name on media. Knowing gambling industry they would come up with alternative options to counter such a ban. Moreover this topic is about Australia and not the globe. Internet is available in Australia and the gambling industry would use this mode to advertise their casinos.

It depends on each person. If he really wants to avoid gambling, he is helping himself to try to ignore gambling ads by blocking ads. But if he still had one's curiosity about gambling, he would return to the casino and gamble again. And even if the block came from the service provider, he would gamble again if that person was still curious about gambling. So, in this case, the attitude of someone who wants to avoid gambling must be clear so that he can avoid gambling.

Illegal promotions had also happened in many countries and they keep doing this.
And to the point that gambling is not allowed online, then they'll offline. But for me, banning is meant only for those who have no permits or illegally operated but those who comply with the necessary permits, I don't think so. Because as long as it abides by the rules of advertising, that was still okay and so the advertising companies must be strict with that kind of promotion so whatever happens, they will take the blame.

[fullhdpixel]

It will be difficult for the government to completely stop the advertising of Casinos or the operations of casinos. Sometimes the illegal stuff can be profitable like the poppy plantations of Afghanistan. The West was even disappointed when finally the Talibaan government finally stop the operation of the heroin source.

Facebook doesn't advertise casino ads AFAIK but it's the influencers sponsoring these influencers that are often the reason for the rise of casino users these days. The government these days however have more things to handle than dealing with those gambling ads. The troubled economy of each country is already weighing too much for the government but they may actually allow casinos to operate widely so they can generate more money.

Well, about Facebook not advertising casinos, I don't really think that works at all because I can clearly see local online casino apps getting promoted every day on Facebook and I don't understand what's their criteria for not allowing gambling ads on their platform because these ads are clearly related to gambling, maybe they have filters only for global platforms or the ones which are successful, or maybe they have certain keywords banned and these advertisers are not using them.

About governments banning gambling advertisements, I believe they can easily do it if they want, but as you said, most governments have other things to take care of and this is not that big of a concern for them, and if gambling is legal in a country, the government will also be getting taxes from them.

And this is an example that show us again why banning is seldom the answer, as it does not matter how smart politicians think themselves to be companies will always find a loophole they can use to take advantage of the situation and continue mostly unhindered by those regulations, what it needs to be done is to create a campaign that alerts people from the dangers of gambling in excess and part of the taxes they get from casinos is used to help to those that have developed an addiction, but besides that there is not much we can do about it.

There's no way on stopping it and we've seen with those bans every corners but it would really be definitely be depending on a certain country on which whether their government is really that seeing that gambling is already affecting their citizens that much or would really be focusing into the revenue and taxes that it do give on which it is really that something that they would really be prioritizing rather than with their citizens possible addiction kind of problem.So this would vary and if things turns out to be banned then gamblers would really be finding ways for them to alter out and make those engagement without being detected.

In todays era and year of technology on which it is really that easy to bypass if ever you would really be tending to play despite of being banned.Therefore, we cant really be able to stop
if ever someone do have that kind of addiction and if you do find yourself being that affected with these ads then its better to ignore or would be blocking out these things
so that you wont really be that making yourself get attached or getting involved with.

OP, the news you provided was only banned by parliament in Australia on online casino and gambling advertising. However, while this may be a temporary inconvenience in Australia, this ban is not likely to affect the entire world. Australia may have some positivity behind banning online gambling and casino ads, but countries that have legal permission for casinos and gambling from the government will not ban online ads.
However, BitcoinTalk's casino and gambling sides will not be adversely affected whether or not Australia bans online gambling and casinos. Those who are regularly active here mainly depend on the updated news of the whole world.

I don't know, but I think this regulation will only apply in Australia and probably won't have an impact on this Bitcointalk forum.
In the article you shared I saw that the main focus on the news was to remove the ads that appear on their sports broadcasts, and they said to remove or focus on the problem of gambling ads that often appear in public places that are often seen by Australians such as advertisements and sponsors in every sporting event in their country.
Meanwhile, advertisements for casinos or gambling places on this forum cannot be seen or are not displayed directly to the general public in that country.

It probably won't affect other countries now but there's a possibility that it might happen soon. Most advertisements that would be hit would surely those that are in the mainstream media and perhaps video content produced by content creators. Ad banners would still be a thing because that is really hard to combat.

Going back to video content creators, I see a lot of them still promoting the same gambling content despite restrictions on gambling itself. Take the Philippines for example, there are some regulations and orders against online casinos in general, but huge content creators continue to advertise these under their channels as if mocking the law. Well, the problem isn't the gambling casinos paying these folks to advertise, but the law not really taking its grip in its policies hence why these gambling content creators continue to advertise and get paid scot-free.

actually even laptop and computer mate , ads are coming from everywhere the internet nowadays , they are good in dealing with this and yes we are now immune to it.

Ads come from everywhere and it depends on how we treat them. If we were okay with the ads, we wouldn't care.

For us, maybe it will be fine and don't care about the advertisements contained on social media, but some people also feel that these advertisements are only annoying because they appear suddenly and make what is being done on social media paused because of the appearance of advertisements which exists.
What is really regrettable is that when there are minors who access the internet or open social media such as YouTube or Facebook or even Twitter, they can see existing gambling advertisements and we ourselves also understand that underage children have a high curiosity, so they are at risk to open or visit the casino contained in the advertisement.

but the question si , do the government or the authority willing todo this? because we knew how much money are flowing in this.

Maybe for countries that prohibit gambling, the government will strictly prohibit it. But for countries where gambling is prohibited, there may be an agreement between the casino and the government and advertising service providers.

That's not how it works because in my country gambling is clearly prohibited and has laws stated in the country's laws but in reality there are lots of streamers and also gambling advertisements are still rampant and free.
The government will never make such an agreement with gambling business actors because in a government system there are rules that are still under law and regulated by law, but indeed there are some unscrupulous people who have high positions in their government to protect or cover up any action regarding the gambling industry due to the large amount of security money they can pocket for those illegal licenses.

We gamble with pure intentions, and not the other way round, hoping to make extreme enormous profits, more like taking it as a multiple streams of incomes which will really have a negative effects on the gambler. Ads for online gambling should be restricted from addicted gamblers who will always possess the necessary tendency to gamble with every last opportunity they see, but it's impossible because the internet is accessible to everyone that have smart phones, computers or laptops. It's very important we know what we're doing in gambling, because it's basically not what we would imply to see.
