What the governments should have been doing, if they cared about their people, is explaining where to watch movies online without catching a malware and where to gamble online without being scammed. Many people who don't trust the Internet(and for some valid reasons, I would say), need this kind of information desperately today, during the quarantine.
Firstly, most people in civilized countries are familiar with streaming services like Netflix for example, so people interested in watching movies can do that without catching malware. What governments should do here is to help their citizens to pay for a subscription, because the unemployment rate is currently growing, while not everyone is receiving unemployment benefits.
Right, Netflix isn't free, as you know it yourself. It costs from $9(Basic) to $16(Premium) per month, and if you tried it, you know that not all famous movies and TV series you can find there, actually far from that. So, only Netflix is definitely not enough. You need to subscribe to 2 or 3 similar services, maybe to Hulu and Amazon Prime, apart from Netflix, and you can end up with something above $40 per month, which is not negligible money for many people in the world. And you are right, in times like these, governments should help their citizens. They should say: "Go to Netflix/Hulu/HBO/Disney Plus/etc. subscribe, and we'll compensate you the money.
Secondly, users themselves should search for gambling websites on which they want to play. No government can help here, they'd rather ban all online casino ads so people don't lose money in times like this. Fortunately for gamblers, there are lot of places they can visit in order to find information about particular online casinos, for example, this forum has many experienced gamblers whose advice can be useful for inexperienced ones.
With gambling it's easier(for the government). They just need to keep track of the existing reliable gambling sites and provide links to them on some official government page. I personally wouldn't suggest users, who have never played online before, to search for gambling sites by themselves.
