This rate can be considered very good and profitable for both parties, but I would like to ask: Is there a moral obligation to complete the agreement? I mean, will the advertiser take into consideration whether the video content could target minors, for example, or encourage gambling without assessing the consequences? Also, is there any legal formula based on which an agreement is made between the advertiser and the owner of the advertisement? In other words, does the state intervene in the role of guarantor between the two parties to protect the targeted niche?

Personally, I consider that not all social media sites are suitable for publishing advertisements for gambling platforms, especially those platforms that are used by all people of all groups and all ages. On this basis, I find it good that many of these platforms do not allow advertisements for gambling companies, such as Facebook and TikTok.

the influence of social media in almost everything we do in recent times cant be overly emphasized as they are very obvious in that we see it how it gets gambling really popular and gets us to start getting to know to well about gambling much more than we have known before now because the gambling social platforms bring to us the reasons to gambling and this making it appear very interesting and attractive to potential gamblers because of the bonuses they offer and make gamblers believe they give gamblers who gets to sign up on their platforms. you are very right this actually gets to affect kids who get to find interest in some of these influencers who get to promote the gambling platforms.

interestingly these gambling sites and casinos get to pay their influencers handsomely making it a reason for them to not want to end any of the deal when brought to them because the care mostly about their money and sadly its almost not possible to get these adverts off the screen of those who aren't the target audience because they get to still view the social platforms of these influencers who has got no restrictions on them and the contents they do put up on those platforms.

Not only on YouTube, they are very popular on TikTok, X formerly Twitter), Facebook and what they do is that they don't directly advertise gambling platforms, they do their normal videos like joke, comedy, football bant, sport analysis and then they tell you to click on the link on their BIO and when you do, you will be directed to a particular gambling platform with 100-300% bonus on your first bonus, so many of them without remorse for underage.

Underage this days are very inquisitive and they want to know what's you actually mean by that % increment on deposit because everyone literally want to make money these days, and it's even funny that nobody speaks about this actions because it has become the norm in the society but it's bad.

Teens most of the time. They are the ones who can decide what they want to do so mostly they end up gambling just so they could double their allowances.
The problem is, gambling sites are open to anyone and so they will try to use the credentials of those around them to take advantage of it.
Governments must be aware of this and I know they have the numbers to prove that most gamblers in this era are teens. As a individual, all we could do is warn the people near us, but when it comes to national problem the government must also do something to percent this kind of schemes from happening over and over again.

Children are not the usual victims of gambling advertised through social networks, the victims are young people with smartphones and computers, internet coverage everywhere to follow interesting topics, bringing small advertisements to a niche part of users, although in the face of media blocking from the government, some content still spreads out. Especially gamers in some gaming fields, they are not too famous to a large extent but have a certain voice in the niche community, from there, gambling ads can easily reach viewers, it's easy to accept advertising offers when they are just small streamers, very few brands care about and collaborate with them.

Yep, with technology that always improving, now we can set up the contents that we want to see.

The problem is there are many people that didn't want to spend their time to checking the update and use the feature, they just keep blaming the social medias why they recommend "that" content, while the fact they're the one who interested with it lol.

Don't blame the social medias, but blame themselves for not learning new things.

Luckily, my country has now imposed sanctions on influencers and creators if anyone promotes gambling site advertisements either through uploaded YouTube videos or on other social media stories, maybe this can prevent underage children from not getting to know gambling sites. too early for them and also prevents them from mental damage, because usually small children will definitely do what they see, especially if the gambling site advertisement is promoted by a creator or influencer they idolize.

If we do speak about social media contents then it wont really be just that limited on gambling-related things alone but also in other things as well on which it might not really be that proper or just right for young viewers for them to see or look with those things on which it could really be something that could really be affecting them in future actions that they would be making. This is why parenting would really be something important on this regard on which it would really be needing that you would really be telling your kids that they should really be not seeing or tending to follow these kind of contents on which we know that this is something that could really be affecting them in near future.

Now that we are seeing tons of those slot gaming streams online specially on facebook then it is really that most likely that our kids will really be able to see those stuffs.
If you dont mind that much about their possible condition the one day you might be seeing them engaging with gambling without you knowing and we know that this is something that we dont
really like to happen. Be responsible as a parent but of course not all the time we would be able to monitor them. This is why it would really be situational.

Well spoken bud, very well spoken, all that you said is true, and I completely agree with you, children are not just the future, but they are the leader we are looking up to tomorrow, when I was in school, there is this song we used to sing, and the lyrics goes like this....

"parents listen to your children, for we are the leaders of tomorrow, try and pay our school fees, and give us a sound education"

Lols, as funny as this may seem to some, it is the truth, it is our responsibility to protect our children from what ever will likely bring harm to them and ruin their future, for what are we alive for? What are we working so very hard for, if not that we will make a good name, as well as good fortune, to give our children a better life for when their tomorrow comes.
If gambling is going to ruin the life of a child, we protect that child from engaging in it.

If they only cares about how to gets more money and decides to keeps playing gambling, that will be difficult because they will not have a big chance to wins. They will face many losses when they gambling and that will not be easy to accept the losses if they can not realizes that gambling is just for fun.
The impact of social media for people is big whereas people can just follow those who shares the information without thinks that will not always works for them. People must filter what they see on social media so they can pick the right and leave the wrong.
Many people carried away from that video and thinks that they can gets the same thing like in the video. That is why people still playing gambling because they have a hope to wins the gambling games.

It's barely a matter of should and shouldn't for them, they barely care about these things because most of these influencers get into this line because they know there is a lot of money to be made in this career path. So, do you think they would leave any opportunity to earn money when they got into it specifically for this thing?

We as viewers need to understand that we aren't supposed to believe or follow what they promote in their videos because they are doing that to earn a living as the websites, projects, and brands are paying them to advertise their products and services, but we are not forced to act upon what they promote and we should have some maturity to avoid things that we know can be harmful to us in the long run.

nowadays people no longer care much about other people, it has become normal for example for someone to create a YouTube channel and talk about gambling (so far so good, I don't see anything wrong with that because gambling is allowed and legal in most countries) but instead of telling people that they should gamble with some responsibility and warning them that they should not use gambling as a means of earning a fixed income or an easy path to wealth, the owner of the channel acts as if gambling is going to give people wealth and fixed income. And why does the channel owner act this way? he acts this way because he is making money from the referrals and sponsorship that the gambling site is giving him

He prefers to see many people harmed as long as he stays well, this is not the fault of the casinos or the bookmakers, it is the fault of some people who are greedy and do not explain other people correctly. In my country, for example, this type of thing has happened a lot, many digital influencers in my country are receiving sponsorship from gambling companies in my country to post on their Instagram accounts that the aviator game can bring wealth and there have been many cases of suicide in my country because people took out loans and played aviator and lost everything

Instead of my country's influencers saying that people should play in moderation and just to have fun, they keep lying that people will get rich playing aviator, I think that people need to have more feelings for other people, not lie to others people like that. Every time I see my country's influencers lying about gambling I think how they can sleep knowing that thanks to their lies people are dying

We thought before that social media was a good source of information but not now, it is a medium of scams and gambling promotions which is not good anymore, especially to our young audiences.

20$ is a good amount that these influencers get tempted without thinking about the bad impact on the community. And I hope they are supposed to know that, not just consider themselves to earn but also how it ruins other life.

It is really a need for the government and the authorities to action. It is not about stopping the gambling industry but a need to align in the right way of promoting it. I am a gambler and I started gambling at the legal age.

The gambling niche is on the world web and viewers of those channels are meant to stop participating online those things they can't do offline. What took them to a gambling page? If they weren't interested in such a niche they would have been using other channels meant for young people. The only advert I don't accept are those done on the platform directly to go across the whole platform not just on an influencers page. Such sponsored adverts have provisions for limiting who gets to see the advert or not.

So if a casino gets to avoid doing such things it'll be a wrong form of advertising their platform since it clearly states that gambling is for adults not kids. To shorten it, I think casinos assume that niche pages consists of adults, that's why they place those adverts there. Because they'll be no means of checking or regulating people that view those pages, shouldn't the barrier for more reachability or advertisement on an influential page.

Well, the only people who care about Children and older people are those of us who have those Children as children, Some as nephews, brothers, whatever, but we don't have to be so Heartless either, I think everyone like humans should focus on impatience Negative, because money is not everything in life, if it helps to have happiness Because it Does help, but we also have to think about the negative impacts on society, if it harms Children, which is what helps next time generation. ? What will happen to them? Engineers, doctors, Specialists, for those who develop Different Solutions to diseases, then only children will always be the future , and they also have to take care of Themselves.

Yes a lot of promotions through the advert and they can talk about it and do some experiments on the advert talk about the company and promote then in their social media and it will happen that many people will engage their self in the gambling, and it is importance for you to succeed  on the gambling  process.
And try to put more of uniqueness on it.

They carried out advertising promotions with streaming and even spread lot of streaming footage showing the victory to several social media, this is unlimited and everyone who enters social media will be able to easily see it.
After all, who cares about underage children or teenagers because they do it all for job, they make money and they will continue to do the same thing until they really get what they want in terms of certain amount of profit.
But it is true that it is the parents of each child or teenager who can prevent it, there must be supervision when children play with cellphones and use various social media.
Education must also always be provided so that there are no negative influences in the future if children or underage teenagers see streaming broadcasts or video footage of gambling activities that have been distributed.

Whatever the method, whether it's through posting photos or on social media, gamblers will never care about who sees it. they just think about how to get more money and be able to continue playing without any capital.
What must be emphasized at this time is that the viewers of the video do not get carried away into the gambling arena. considering that the audience still doesn't know how the world of gambling works, including financial management, controlling emotions and so on.

They only cares how they can benefits from the videos and that's why they always upload their videos every day. They don't care about their audience because as long as they can make money from the videos, they will focus on that.
If they focus in the gambling business, they will introduce many new gambling sites, but the audience should not always follows what they do because we must responsible with our money. This forum serves many gambling sites, including new gambling sites so we don't have to follow the influencers from the social media.
Those influencers really makes a lot of money from their videos so they will creates many more videos to attracts more audience that will watch their videos and gives them money. The audiences must be careful with the videos that can tempts them to follows to playing gambling.

I think these influencers must know their target audience before accepting the offer or should not be included in their vlogs or videos?

they dont care about their target audience is what they care is money hahah we actually do advertising for the gambling site guys but mostly we discussed in here so we know our target is people who already play gamble in the forum.

Here in Indonesia you can get paid 20$ per videos with only put slot images or name site in your videos and you can get more if your video getting popular and show in for your page
