Topic: Have you seen gambling advertisements on TV? Opinion. - page 3. (Read 1737 times)

Actually agree into this point and the fact that TV prices nowadays is already getting cheaper. You have noticed it too? Due to technoligical advancement then this is one of its effects on which those
traditional way becomes that obsolete or gradually becoming non relevant since everything could really be seen or watch by the comfort of your own hands via using mobile/cellphones
and this what makes the situation even more harder to control on considering that our kids do have their own devices then they are really that prone into those ads too
on which this is why it would really be that important that you should really be teaching them at least on whats its cons on dealing with it.

It is important as a parent on making them at least wary about its possible negative impact into someones lives once you've decided on taking
to deal from it. So its a personal choice i should say.

Well, one of the reasons why the parents, who are very corrupt, accept these deals because of what you just said, for a big cut and let them circulate as if nothing had happened, but even so, knowing that things are prohibited, they are always going to look for some type of amendment that allows them to do this type of act, in my country it was also like that, for more than 20 years casinos were prohibited, in fact until recently they allowed casinos, but why? because the casinos offer them large amounts of money to be able to give them to them, then this is a total corruption, of course the government entities when they go to the physical casinos, because that day only the casino is only for them, no one who is not from the government They can enter because it is for their exclusive use, so the basic casinos in the Capital of the country are like that, as long as there is money for them everything is fine.

And looking at it carefully, all these statements make me think that in almost all of them the same things that politicians do and seek are fulfilled because they are people who only think about themselves and nothing else, which seems to me to be very bad, in fact the Politicians in these countries have so much power that when they go to a specific city and there are electricity problems, the electricity companies agree that once they are there they do not lack the service and the cities at that time all have the ele service. ´ctrio, even politicians influence that, so I think that we should always see politicians not as help for a people, but basically they do what a parasite does, they don't care except for their own benefit, at least in my opinion. country is like that and my country is rich and yet the majority of people live in poverty.

Such a situation would be similar to many countries today. Because the government has now made corruption easier to strengthen their power and the syndicates are taking advantage of it to continue their illegal activities. Money power is the main thing in the world now, those who have the most money are doing what they want. And these ad campaigns and things like that are happening.

My description is similar to the situation in many countries, those who live in those countries can easily understand what is happening in front of them.

It seems that we are almost in the same country based on the description you shared, where the government is a big corrupt one, they don't take any action here especially in the illegal doings of the country because of big and rich people are behind it and strongly attached to the government. Well, when it comes to money, who wouldn't refuse a million million offers just to protect all illegals. I won't mention the country but I know many people can relate to it.

Those channels are run by many powerful people with connections to the government, so they also advertise illegal stuff but nothing happens to them. They broadcast these advertisements regularly and on a large scale during cricket, football games. I don't know why law enforcement agencies don't take action against these channels, as per rules they can't advertise gambling websites on their channels, but they are doing this illegal thing without any problem.

The law enforcement agencies do not take action against the gamblers in my country, the same way they do not take action against channels run by such powerful people, even I think they may not take any time. Because corruption exists everywhere, they control everything with money power.

People used to watch TV channels more often when the internet wasn't as common and accessible as it is today. Nowadays, the percentage of people who watch TV channels has reduced greatly because most people use the internet and watch movies and shows and other stuff using streaming services which are usually ad-free which means that there are no advertisements shown to subscribers in most of these services.

That's why, I believe that most gambling platforms and casinos use online channels for marketing purposes and to promote their products and services. Social media platforms are very much popular for such things, other than that, websites that put Google Ads in their banner positions often get gambling ads to promote.

Disappointingly, gambling ads are everywhere on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. The power of internet marketing blurs legal lines. These commercials, expertly disguised and approved by influencers, permeate our daily lives, making it hard to protect our children.

I understand the contradiction of these sites enabling such stuff while claiming "legal ambiguities". The morality seems to conflict with the financial margins in this sophisticated use of digital freedoms. This is about ethics and duty, not just law.

We must be the first defense as adults. Open conversations with youth about gambling's risks are my preference. Giving them the skills to make informed judgments

       -   Well, the only thing I see that has gambling ads is on Facebook, and I'm not sure if there are also on YouTube, but there are no gambling ads on regular TV or television. So, it means that gambling ads on regular television channels are not regulated.

So the only problem here is Facebook, because there are often many minors who use it, so children cannot avoid it, and their parents do not monitor it most of the time.


Yes, you are right, it will not be a good situation for children to see gambling ads, so in such a situation, they will have curiosity and can ask questions in their minds about gambling.

If there are indeed gambling advertisements on TV then this would be very unfortunate because it could be that children who are not yet adults and can differentiate between good and bad continue to try to gamble, of course this is not very good because they are not yet able to carry out gambling activities and if they Of course as parents they must be responsible for eliminating the habit of gambling in their children.
Telling them that gambling is not a good thing can keep them from gambling and if they keep doing this they will still be able to control themselves because they already know that gambling is not a good thing for them to do.

Actually, it happening also others region not only with yours. But what we can do if this gambling advertisement games on TV channel and if your children sitting in front of that then I think you should change the channel immediately. Or if they ask about that what was that then there is a no need to tell them lie tell them the truth, tell them gambling was not a good thing for kids, show them the bad sides of gambling and tell them you can also gamble after 18 age with your ability.

In countries where gambling is still illegal, gambling sites will not be displayed on billboards continuously, but there are several advertisements during certain events such as sporting events related to betting on gambling sites. Apart from television, we also see various advertisements on The social media that we often visit are Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and it is not uncommon for many public figures to advertise on this site so it is difficult to avoid these advertisements because perhaps they have paid expensive taxes so the advertisements continue to run and there are even several applications. The permits in the Playstore make it seem as though the residence is legal for gambling.

And because of the many advertisements for gambling, children know about it and are worried that one day they might get into it if they are curious about the game, we as adults must be able to supervise the children around us and advise them not to gamble when they are not yet old enough.

Ok but isn't it surprising that 1xbet can run advertisements when your government is so harsh about it? I think it would be easy for them to shut down any gambling advertisements when gambling is prohibited altogether. I get the point that these ads might be placed on Internet streaming channels, but I doubt that in most countries someone could just go and stream an ad when the service or product is illegal.

I think by now it doesn't really matter that much anymore whether there are ads on TV as literally 99% of the kids have a mobile phone at their youngest ages and if they watch all kinds of videos, whether it is Youtube or TikTok or whatever else there is, they get to see those ads al the time I would assume. And the ads are really not the worst to be honest as I am sometimes shocked to find out what kind of videos children can access.

One of the main factors on which these ads would really be seen into TV on which it would be talking about regulation thing, if its allowed then expect those ads would really be showing into those
mediums on which it wont really be just that limited to TV but also in other online surfing as well on which mainly targeting out those people who might have interest on gambling. The only sad
thing with these ads is that not all would really be filtered out on which there would really be kids or minors that could possibly be able to watch out those ads on which it might be resulting into
those engagement on which it could really be putting those children into a huge risks on being a gambler. Well, there would really be those program control or board which would really be
protecting out into those children and having those warnings if ever its been aired out.

Gambling is not legal in my country so gambling ads are not available on all TV channels, but 1xbet ads are shown on sports channels in my country during cricket football matches. Government takes a very strong stand against gambling. Many people in my country are arrested by law enforcement agencies every year for their involvement in gambling. But because the people who run the sports channels are high-ranking people of the government, no one takes any action against them even if they advertise gambling websites.

But yes they only show these ads during the game and the rest of the time no gambling site ads are shown on any TV channel. TV channels are more interested in advertising gambling websites because they get paid many times more for advertising gambling websites than other advertisements.

It depends on the country.I have never seen any betting or gambling ads in the country where I live now as gambling is banned and only one big casino is allowed in the center of the city,no one else is allowed to open up such a business.In countries like UK where in every 50 meters you can find a lotto shop of course you will see tons of such ads in Sky sports for example Betfair,Bet365,some new platforms which I forgot the name but the point is that you will see tons of them.I don't know which country from the two has the right politic but I would go with the first one removing such ads from the television otherwise it can have a huge impact with the young generation of that country,just my opinion though.

Well, in some countries like Colombia and Chile, when you watch sports, especially football, you do see casino advertisements, but on the fields, it is something that you cannot ignore, however, there are casino advertisements and advertisements but that They are fiat casinos, controlled and I imagine they must have much more KYC than what a crypto casino might require, so based on this, I think it would not be bad to put it on a blacklist, because it is advertising, when it was like 4 -5 years old I saw a lot of cigarette advertisements and they were very good and yet as a child for that time it never caused me to smoke, I already knew that it was harmful to the lungs and I didn't pay attention to them, but I did like the announcements.

I have always wanted to see a crypto casino on TV, because that is like promoting Bitcoin, just the fact that they say in the advertisement that it is a crypto type and people start wondering, what is crypto? or what bitcoin is, (for those who don't know) so I don't see this type of thing as bad.

Children are in much more danger now that tablets and phones are available to them so they can do their things and there are many dangers, the most dangerous thing of all, I think it could be casino notices, because there they can enter prohibited places. , where there are pedophiles and sick people, that is dangerous and I think that is the only thing that parents should take care of the children more, instead give a TV because the thing is different, and for me if they can get to many hearings, I don't know Why not, but there are countries, especially in South America, where people watch a lot of TV and now there are many people who have a lot of money and know that these casinos exist, so why not take advantage? Things always go your way.

I think I haven't seen a gambling game ad yet when watching a TV but when some show ends, one of their sponsors can be a casino. On some sports, there might be banners now of a gambling company that are shown.

I still think exposures like these won't get the attention of our child so this is not alarming at all but on your case, limiting those kind of ads may not be enough. What is truly needed there is to not accept such ads but the problem is if the network will agree since they can also earn money on it. Sometimes a company won't care about the sake of other people but what important for them is only their own selves. All you can do for now is to blacklist that channel. I am sure modern TV's has this option now.

I very rarely watch television, unless there is a football match. On national TV in my country, it can be said that I have never seen online gambling advertisements, because my country strictly prohibits all types of gambling practices, as well as gambling advertising, it is strictly prohibited. I often see gambling advertisements on social media or on live streaming sites for football matches.

And I think that television broadcasts should not contain advertisements for casinos, except at certain times, such as in the middle of the night. because during the day there were lots of small children watching television. And it is feared that this could be a trigger factor for them joining a gambling platform.

maybe in your country gambling is legal, in my country gambling is illegal, and I have never seen any advertisements about gambling on my local TV station, but unfortunately most children now prefer to watch YouTube, on YouTube I sometimes see advertisements for gambling , but I have set it if my child is holding my cellphone so that it doesn't display gambling advertisements

I agree with you. Children don't have enough funds to become gamblers, neither personal banking accounts to make deposits on gambling platforms. Moreover, children's interests fluctuate constantly. Of course they may watch a gambling ad on the TV and develop a sudden interest for the practice, especially if there are other children at school or at social medias' groups talking about this matter, but it's likely to be a transitional curiosity which won't go further as soon as they conclude it's not a feasible activity for children.

So, they will migrate their focus to videogames, cartoons, movies and other subjects of the puerile universe once again. In every cases, it's important parents monitor the routine of their children, and watch closely what kind of content they are consuming, especially on the internet. It's essential parents talk to their children in a daily basis about how they are doing, what the news are and so on. To be responsible parents also mean to show genuine interest for the routine of their children.
