Some people will be happy with the legalization of gambling, but others will certainly oppose it because of the negative effects that will arise from gambling. Even if gambling is legalized in the country, of course it will increase state income because every casino will definitely pay taxes to the state.
With the hype of the US presidential election bet, I didn't know that it wasn't legal before now, I was thinking that they used to bet on presidential elections before now. It's ok that they legalized it to expand gamblers options to betting, I see it as a new innovation in gambling. Hopefully other countries where gambling is legal will adopt the presidential election bets, it's an innovation in gambling options. I however don't want to see everything that we don't know the outcomes to be legalized into gambling, like proposed bills, whether they'll be signed into law or not.

Honestly aside from breach of privacy, it quite literally just defeats the purpose of online gambling. The point of anything online nowadays is so that you don’t have to leave your house. What is the point if I still have to go outside and register? Lol.

I doubt any gambler will want to continue with a casino with this kind of requirement.
We can’t really argue with regulators since they have the final say. Gambling isn’t a basic right we’re fighting for, it’s something we can live without. So, if they decide that’s how they want to verify us, we have no choice but to comply if we want to continue gambling.

However, I’m sure this won’t apply to all casinos, especially since the industry is already in the digital era. Physical appearances for verification are no longer necessary. In fact, there are financial applications that allow online verification, so it’s unclear why gambling should be treated any differently.

Most online gambling sites these days are only requiring online submission of docs, and if in case they need to ask your photo, they will just ask for selfie or actual snapshots of your face using their software. That's the perks of online gambling. Now, if the site wants physical presence on their site, that's another story.
Do remember, most online sites don't have physical office to begin with. So they will only require online compliance of their requirements.

Yes, there is no doubt that people are like that, but it is unheard of, this mentality, this absurd culture, has to change, it is very crude that people have to go underground to do something as basic as having fun, like playing in a casino, like going and betting, what does the government care if people decide to have fun however they want? It is a problem with that person, not the government, it should not be prohibited, in the USA things have to change, it is supposedly the most developed country but with these things? It has to change so that people do not make good things illegal.
To change that habit needs to be slowly and can not with strictly rules or something like that. Those people will not want to follow suggestion form other like that and maybe using another approach but in this matter, the government needs to care with them. Otherwise, the number of addicted people to gambling will increase. Education will takes a role to make those people realize of what they do but maybe the government can considering to make gambling legal but only with a strict rules. Not all people can playing gambling because there will be a need to have a new law to control about gambling.

I know that Muslims have a lot of things that they can't do, because of their religion and their traditions, I know that they are super radical in that, but with men too? I know that women don't have that right, which doesn't seem like a big deal to me, but if men can't gamble either, I'm glad I wasn't born in those lands because I think I would have run away, but I think that casinos, games of chance, which have everything to do with this entertainment is just that, entertainment, they shouldn't be banned.
I guess men are playing gambling in that country but they will not do that in a public area instead will search for the underground casino. They will feel safe playing gambling in that place because they can stay away from the police that will arrest them. But with the growing of the internet and many online casino available, they can use their devices to playing online gambling. I see some of them are playing gambling in a public area without worry if that is break their law. Well, everything has change and people are not just go to offline casino to playing gambling but they can playing gambling in the online casino.

Apparently there’s also plans in the works to make online gambling much more prevalent. Right now online gambling is very dicey law wise , like for many casinos you have to go set your account up inside the physical casino or at minimum in the parking lot when on their WiFi network lol.
Are you serious right now? Then what does it infer of one's privacy?

This is an infringement on people's privacy, if it's true because you do not know what the casinos could do to your gadget by giving them such access.

the conservatives would definitely be opposed this

americans are always fighting about the rights or legalization of a certain demographic even if it doesn’t affect them i mean if you don’t want to gamble then don’t? why do people act like legalization means you HAVE to gamble when that is not the case it just allows more protection and regulation rather than secrecy and vagueness for gamblers

This is even more risky because it's their WiFi, well, let me assume this is not true, you may just be sarcastic there, the US can't subject the rights of their people to so much ridicule in the hands of casinos. This will even anger the Yankees to use offshore services if possible, and thanks to crypto, always ready to help in this situation. Wink

They’re more concerned about the election because the future of the country depends on who wins, especially in a major nation. However, I don’t think people are naive,  for sure they know who to vote for based on who they believe will help them.
The fear that the integrity of the election might be affected just because it’s available for betting doesn’t seem relevant. This is a significant global event, and every camp will ensure it’s conducted fairly. People are closely watching, and transparency will have to be ensured as well.
There was a huge amount of gross bets on different gambling sites all over the globe that offered that political bet and it was as a result of the US governmental election mainly. The organised bets on casinos for that particular election was more like an avenue for core supporters of Trump and bitcoin to show how much they believed in trump's movement. Although people can actually be naive sometimes, before voting there is a high tendency for them to actually look for qualities that they support in the contestants.
One thing that gave trump's movement momentum in this last election was his support for bitcoin it was pretty much like people were looking for a government that supports bitcoin more than one that condemns it.

Aside from generating revenue from taxes to support the government. One good thing I'm saying about legalizing gambling is that it helps reduce or combat teenage gambling. When you legalize casinos, they are officially no longer hiding. So, it's not like teenagers have to sneak in or hide. At least, there will be restrictions and security. So, when you see an underage person in the gambling place, you can boldly walk them out or call the attention of casino owners.

If gambling is illegal in your city, it means that if you see an underage person, even while reprimanding them, you might not speak out too loudly. Because maybe you don't even want your family to know you're there. You might not want others to know you're gambling too. But when it's legal, at least you can help enforce restrictions. And restricting teenage gambling will also be easier.

As regards gambling, there is more to anticipate seeing from the central authorities, governments are to ensure that they are not too strict with their law on gambling in other for the people to be able to have full access to their freedom to gambling, all thanks to the way things are more getting advanced and developed now, that more regulations are being put in place to favour gambling.

Was listing to the news during my morning get ready for work routine and they were discussing with the the recent election results, betting on the outcome of the president of the United States is likely to be legalized soon. I forget why, but had no idea it wasn’t legal.

Apparently there’s also plans in the works to make online gambling much more prevalent. Right now online gambling is very dicey law wise , like for many casinos you have to go set your account up inside the physical casino or at minimum in the parking lot when on their WiFi network lol.

Anyways just wondering if anyone else had heard of about these updates and can provide a bit more insight ?

Considering that Trump managed to bankrupt a casino, a pretty impressive task considering how profitable they are when left alone, then I might be a bit concerned about what he will try to get involved in with regards to gambling laws. He has a tendency towards self enrichment at all times, but can also help the industry as a byproduct of that too. Even before Trump became president in waiting the trend was towards more liberal gambling laws, so it is a progression that was in place whether he became president or not. The fact that in America all gambling winnings are taxed gives it a big money earning potential for the government as well, so it makes sense to open up the laws even further.

Some people will be happy with the legalization of gambling, but others will certainly oppose it because of the negative effects that will arise from gambling. Even if gambling is legalized in the country, of course it will increase state income because every casino will definitely pay taxes to the state.
Gambling is already being controlled in any states and now we could see more regulations that could make gamblers to rethink when to gamble because there will be lots of restrictions. As a gambler that in a region where there is no restriction to betting, we ought to understand those measures that needed to be taken to ensure that we state away from frequent gambling so we don't become too accustom to the activity that could make us want to bet more especially when we might have made loses from betting and want to get our funds back.
Apart from religious concerns that will stop the legalization of gambling, there should be no other reasons why gambling can't be fully legal, i believe everyone should be free to their own choice of actions. With restrictions or not, those who still wants to gamble will smuggle their ways through the system and still not get apprehended.

About 30-40 countries were gambling is not yet legalized, there are likely individuals who gamble in secrete and silence so as to avoid any implication, since the government are unable to detect and penalize this people why not they make it something legal with strong confrontations against addiction and underage yet still create opportunity for themselves to get with taxes to be paid by the Casinos.

At this point the United States only has a couple options when it comes to online gambling. They can restrict use of VPNs leading to a bunch of people getting arrested for ridiculous reasons while even more pursue ways to get around government control, or they can embrace it and make some tax revenue.

I’m reminded of the line in Star Wars where the Princess says something to the effect of the tighter you make your grasp the more that will slip through your fingers.

Take sports betting, for example. There’s a reason it exists, even though game-fixing is possible due to the money involved. Yet, it’s still widely accepted. The same logic can apply to betting on elections.

It was legalized before the election took place mate, all those betting wasn't illegal, nothing is going to be changed I believe because nothing was wrong with it already, Trump has many problems to deal with once he takes over, laws on gambling is not one of them, any platform that want to run bets they must be registered is all, and this have been happening for way too long already.

IIRC, this was already settled by the judge’s order. There’s nothing wrong anymore with betting on election outcomes, it doesn’t affect the integrity of the election. If they were truly concerned about integrity, that standard should apply across the board.
