What do you feel from this that gambling is less ethical?

Is this the reason why you think some countries ban gambling because it's less ethical? Because, I don't think so.
They have complete different reasons not because it's less ethical, but it's most probably because a lot of people lost control of their habits and that gambling was associated with syndicates and crime. But if you come to think of it, gambling isn't really an unethical activity as long as you're spending your own money without having to obtain money illegally to sustain your gambling needs. Some countries strongly believed that the effects on gambling may contribute greatly on the number of crimes happened in their places.
Humans are very hard to control and that's why most of the government have banned the act of gambling because just like you stated most citizens just go out and make useless of their life because of the losese they have inquire while gambling. Gambling is very frustrating and can make people do  desperate things and do all other crazy things.

There are many religious and cultural views about gambling. Some religions don't prohibit gambling but it is seen as unethical by some believers.  Religions like Christianity don't forbid gambling but it is not accepted among Christians because it is seen as a medium to seek for quick money or wealth which could lead to greed. In most Christian-dominated countries gambling is not prohibited. However, Islam sees gambling as a sinful behavior that should be avoided. That is why in most Islamic nations gambling is highly prohibited and casinos are not allowed to operate. Some cultures or traditions see gamblers as time and money wasters,  therefore societal values discourage people from gambling.

Responsible gambling is very ethical and should not be banned. What should be discouraged and controlled is gambling addiction. Another act that should also be controlled is underage gambling. Children and underage teenagers should be protected against gambling because they can easily become addicts.

This will always depend on the belief of your Religion and seriously, gambling is becoming more legal now.
Even my country is not on the given list, I can say that gambling here is legal and many gamblers are rushing into this platform, you can see the rise of adoption and it started during the pandemic season where many can't go outside and don't have things to do aside from playing online. Gambling is slowly becoming acceptable by many, I think its becoming more ethical now.

I feel that countries that banned gambling has a close ties to their religion.  Since majority of the religion frowned upon gambling and even declare that it is a sin.  The government following the core of their major religion make any gambling activities illegal.

Most countries that allow gambling have a clear view of the separation of the religion and states. Where religion should not interfere with the affairs of the government.  I do not think that the government banned gambling because it is less ethical but rather because of the influence of their major religion.

I'm not entirely sure about your use of 'less ethical.' I mean gambling should be legalized in many countries already and restricted in a few especially in Arabian countries (Middle East and North African countries).

I'm curious about where you obtained the list of countries you mentioned. Also, by 'ethical,' do you mean countries that shouldn't legalize gambling? If that's the case, I don't think any of those countries have a reason to make gambling illegal, as there doesn't seem to be a reason for them to do so imho.

There are a lot of other countries where gambling is legal and a lot of others where gambling is illegal.I have to be honest here,despite being an avid gambler I am well aware that people who live in countries where gambling is illegal do somewhat better in life,their mind is not always thinking about gambling.Sure there are people there who play gambling online as online you can bypass government restrictions but this number is low.In fact the UK has the biggest number of people who suffer from gambling addiction as in UK people use to gamble a lot,I have seen this first hand there,not that I have any source for this,those guys whenever were going to the stadium they were betting,whenever they were going to eat dinner they were betting,when they were in a pub after work which is custom there to drink something they were betting,so gambling overall has negative consequences for people who do it.

It's always been the case though, there are government around the world that are very strict, it could be because of the form of their government or because of their religion that they ban gambling totally and we can't do anything about it.

What do you feel from this that gambling is less ethical?

I'm not really sure what you mean? Again as I have said, there are reasons that government not wanting to see any form of gambling because of their belief and obviously they don't want their population to be involved on it. So if you are in those ban countries and wanted to gamble, then there is the risk involved and you can't fight the government. The best thing to do is get out of that country and travel.

Each government has its own regulations when it comes to gambling. Some of them restrict it for their own reasons believing that it will benefit their country as well as their in general. They have a different basis when it comes to banning it. Some of them rely on their culture and belief which we also have to respect.
It's a good thing that there are still other alternative ways for some gamblers in gambling-restricted countries to gamble despite the restrictions. As for me, we couldn't question the decision of their government for banning and restricting gambling since we all have different cultures and belief and each country has different economic situation as well.

Why pose your question like that, as if because these countries have allowed it - somehow it is less ethical? Most of the countries in your list offer some of the highest standard of living and advanced environments you'll find anywhere on the planet. How about these countries have seen common sense and accepted that you may as well regulate this activity, that people have wanted to engage in since the beginning of time, and get tax from it instead of driving it underground? You can guarantee that gambling takes place in many different forms in every country of the world, it's just other countries choose to hide the activity and pretend like it doesn't exist, or usually persecute the activity due to some religious related nonsense. You'll also find that these are some of the lesser corrupt countries too. I know which type of country I'd rather live in.

I don't think it's a serious problem, there are always differences views between countries. Just like bitcoin, there are those who support it and there are those who prohibit it. It was something that usually happened

Even though many countries prohibit gambling activities, many citizens gamble on online gambling sites. Nowadays, gambling is very easy, we only need a smartphone. Apart from that, they can also use a VPN if the online gambling site is blocked.

Gambling has been "legal" in the Untied States for a very long time, however it was only legal in certain places.  But, times sure are a changing here in the United States when it comes to gambling legalization.  Here in my state, Illinois, we've really loosened the laws around gambling and now there are gambling parlors all over the place.  Almost every hotel/gas station etc has slot machines. 

Sports betting laws have been eased too.  It's an exciting time!

i'm a little confused about your purpose in making this topic, but all the countries you mentioned above don't prohibit gambling (but they strictly monitor gambling), they only see it as individual freedom, whether or not gambling activities are ethical is a personal opinion, if you go to various communities then of course they will say gambling is unethical because it is against religious teachings but if you go to the community of sports and slot game/betting lovers then they will say gambling is very ethical and it is unreasonable to ban it.

Yeah some countries have legalized gambling for a long time so what does it mean to be unethical? Could it be referring to Muslim countries as many people have said above?

It's well known that countries always have different rules, so for anyone in a legal gambling area they won't get into trouble, but when in a country where gambling is prohibited then it's not allowed to play in casinos then you will face the local law.

Many European countries may have legalized gambling, as have several American countries. In Asia, gambling is also legal in several countries, but perhaps not in some countries where the majority of the population is Muslim.

The legality of gambling can basically make the country profit, but of course the government needs to strictly control gambling activities which might limit you from gambling. Somewhere, I've heard the government is starting to limit gambling budget, so gambler won't be completely free to use all they money even though they have legalized gambling.

The conditions of society in each country are different, but I also realize that most people like gambling. And it is not impossible that the legalization of gambling in every country can occur, even though some people consider gambling to be very contrary to norms and laws. However, currently I see that gambling has become a disease for society, because many of them are addicted to illegal gambling. And of course, so that every country is able to control gambling carried out by the public, like it or not, the government must legalize gambling so that it can control and supervise gambling activities carried out by the public. And this is done to prevent even worse things from gambling addiction.

Countries that made gambling legal are also making money out of the taxes they get from the casinos. As far as I know, they still seize casinos that operate illegally which basically gambling still is illegal they just made some establishments where gambling is legal.

The only countries that made gambling completely illegal are the Muslim countries yet there are few where casinos are operating like Egypt and Lebanon.

There's nothing wrong with gambling if we all can strictly adhere to the basic protocols of having fun and making friendliness while gambling, but that isn't how the exact situation of the whole thing appears in real life now with every gambler, people have abused it in such away that many have lost hope in it that it can be trusted to that extent in finding a reputable gambling platform who will serve them right without turning a scam on the later run, all these are what the government have looked into and make a summary to kick against gambling in some countries, because many have been scammed and amount worth of reasonable worth were lost at the cause as well, though not every countries ban gambling, they only regulate it to the bearest minimum.

Most of the country in your list is developed countries,So the people of this country will have enough money to run their life.So they also had some free money to use for the entertainment alone.It may be the reason for their government to enable the gambling in this nation.US was the rich in the economy and people per capita income will be more compared to the other country.For this reason,the government allow their citizen to get involve in the gambling.The developing countries like Bangladesh had prohibit the gambling activities.Because the small money from the people will help their nation to next level.Australia was the place where people ready to spend huge money in gambling.

What or who is less ethical? The countries where gambling is a legal practice? There is nothing ethical or unethical on gambling. It's just a neutral activity, which can be positive or negative for an individual or society, depending how it's being organized, executed and promoted by the individuals involved. As we can see on the presented list, it includes mainly first world countries, what means gambling isn't harmful for their economies along all these years it's being practiced by their citizens. In many cases it's actually good, since gambling moves the touristic interest for a specific region.
