I don't know if it has been shared or not , but Europe is considering to tighten the laws of Gambling especially the online ones. They want to **regulate** it , which actually means that they want these online gambling casinos to pay up the government somehow.

We already have laws regarding these casinos but I do believe for the government it is not enough.

Pros:
 1. Can help regulate the spam casinos
 2. People will have security
 3. They will be protected by the laws

Cons:
 1. People will have to actually pay up more indirectly for extra charges
 2. No privacy

What do you think ?
Is this essential? Would it affect the online casinos?
 
Governments are trying all what they can in order to try to get their hands in some more money but I think we are reaching the limits of what big governments can do, if instead of trying to get more money just to sustain themselves they actually tried to become smaller so the government was a lesser burden to all their citizens then they could resolve this issue quite quickly, but that never crossed their minds as if they want to regulate all the actions of their citizens they need more people, more money and more technology.

So to me this argument that they are doing all of this just so they can pay for the pandemic is nothing more but a smokescreen I am never going to believe.
