Topic: Gambling Is Legal In Our Country But if You Promote It Online You'll Go To Jail? - page 2. (Read 1481 times)

Smart gamblers should implement their solid strategies and ensure they're not caught by the government, that means they will stay safe. We should ready to face the decisive actions from the government and also aiming for the best, I know it's not ways to go against the contrary rules of the government but some rules are mainly for average class and they should tens to break them if they're fighting to be free to gamble. Funny how it sounds because this is just to entrapped gamblers that have hits lotto and become very promising in the system.

I could not agree with you because if the government considered the promotion is bad for human specially for the children then why they are not banning the service of gambling. If they ban gambling then the large portion of people will be able to stay away from gambling.

I don't think if there is something else attached to such situations other than what you have just said.
In such state of gambling dominance, they would be likely individuals whom had ruined their lives at the course of take gambling for source of income couples with the influences of the content creators who manipulates the minds of the people with false adverts that whoever follows their leads would stand the chances to win

I don’t really know how to contribute what is in my mind because the country seems to be confused on what they want. How would you legalize gambling and have a law that if anyone pulls gambling online it is a crime, but it is legal in the country, I don’t See sense. Or smartness in this process well I would see that it is just time they are waiting. Maybe they will also legalize it online or they have the reason that is the only thing is your country and they know what you are doing to protect you that is just it.

Actually this is kind of a good step or decision because government is really that still minding about into their citizens sake when it comes to gambling addiction on which we know that this is really that something that will really be avoiding or lessening creating new addicts. It would really be that something that totally opposing on the overall intent on gambling revenue.
I dont see something anything wrong with this on which as long they could really be able to control too much gambling addiction without sacrificing their gambling industry revenue.
So it would really be that better that let them be on how they would really be handling out but if its for the sake of betterment of its citizens then it would really be just that fine.

As a citizen then you wont really be having any options or choices but to obey on whats mandated or what are the rules if you dont like to get into jail.
So it would really be just that a normal that you would be following the rules.

When the government makes laws in a country, it makes laws keeping in mind the overall welfare of the people. In this case, the government has legalized the casino or gambling but made the promotion of gambling or casino illegal, maybe the government has a big plan in this regard. The government never wants the misfortune of a country but always wants the welfare of the people and may have made this rule. Although the rule may seem strange temporarily, if its long-term perspective is considered, there are certainly good reasons for the government to make this law. If people think this law is strange, I think that the people of that country will follow a discipline towards gambling and casino and this law seems to be effective enough for students and young generation.

That's s very sensitive step taken by the government of your country and isn't wierd. Gambling sites, centres can be present but that mean they can't take measures to curtail  the spread of  Gambling in the country of which such is one of the measures.

I think this would help reduce the number of citizens that would participate, I love this. Most persons would have gotten interest after seeing post of winnings and hearing enticing words and benefits during promotions which in reality isn't easy as said. This is also safeguarding underage 🔞 from been expose to gambling at an early stage.

I would have loved if my country also initiated this measure, though all country aren't the same and have different policies. You don't many that would have gotten involved and lose much, those leading to debt and financial instability and issues.
My concern is; That the casinos and gambling companies (sites) don't have influencers and promoters in your country? If they don't this would have great impact in reaching potential clients thus affecting there revenue generation in your country.
   
 

You could always share you wins with friends and family. But promoting it online is what’s frowned upon. I do agree that the law is kinda strange as you could freely gamble but can’t openly talk about in and in a way, help promote it online.
Like you noted, they’re probably trying hard to curtail the increasing number of gamblers in the country and the rate of irresponsibility that comes with it. The rate of minors being exposed to gambling online is alarming and perhaps that’s why the law was proposed.

I think they are seeing the damage caused by the promotion of gambling content and hence the ban. It could be children who see these content, people losing too much money in gambling, or anything that is just not right. You can’t blame the government for the decision because I believe that they are doing what they see to be best. It’s good they didn’t ban it so people will get the message and it wouldn’t seem like it was an aggressive attack on gambling .

It is true that different countries has different laws and regulations but the rule of the country of the OP is too contradictory and I relay hate this type of law cause the country supports gambling but they do not support promoting it. If they can't support promoting then they should stop supporting gambling.

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.

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.

Somewhat it is really that obvious that the government is really that trying out to suppress possible gambling addiction into its citizens on which we know that once these winnings would be aired or published out
then it would really be that creating that kind of interest for people to play gambling and we do know that once addiction kicks in then it would really be imposing another potential problem on which
government would really be some heachache.

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.

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.

On the other side, they are attempting to keep people from talking about gambling. So, it appears that there is some discrepancy in their approach to this by drawing a clear line between "promoting" gambling and "discussing" it. For example, the government may enable people to share their gambling experiences, both positive and unpleasant. However, they may restrict persons from advertising or inciting gambling. This would allow individuals to discuss their experiences while simultaneously limiting the development of gambling addiction. Allow consumers to make educated judgments about whether or not to bet, without fully outlawing marketing.

Nah, I don't think it works that way. It say's in the article that anyone who post gambling related promotions will be charged. I don't think posting your winnings in the social media will get you charged of the bill. I think this law is created for those very abusive and greedy content creators who constantly advertise gambling related contents enticing people to do gambling. They even stage a betting session where they win good amount of money just to encourage their followers to do the same and use their referral code. Online gambling platform are seriously paying these greedy content creators to promote their website in the most aggressive way. The law is created to protect children from seeing this kind of content and to avoid adults from getting addicted.
What I think about this law is actually just fair. Even in the television, gambling advertisement are only limited.

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.

I'd agree if it's about the wrong way of promotion and the promoters have got the audience that are below the legal age then that should be fined.

But if it's about the traditional way of advertising and promotion then it's like any other service that they're promoting but they have no control over who's going to see their promotion.

So, the channel or promoter who promotes it will likely get some fine if they've got that range of audiences that are minors.

Yeah, it really depends on the actual country that you live.

It is such a different world when you go somewhere else, because you assume everyone has the same rules, but the world doesn't work like that at all.

Here in India, as such gambling is illegal (unless it is in the form of government approved lotteries). And a lot of times the illegal gambling dens get raided by local police (that is unless they pay the bribes on time). But the government is completely helpless when it comes to online gambling. They can't take any action, because the web servers are situated abroad, in countries where gambling is legal. Law enforcement is always a step behind in terms of technological innovations. In the end, government ends up losing valuable tax revenue, and the citizens still participate in gambling through the online loophole.
