..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.

I'm in favor of it as a whole when we looked at the positive side. Turned the most hype activity during the pandemic into something good.

During the pandemic, there are lots of illegal gambling operators that work under the shadows. It does mean that these unlicensed businesses (online gambling sites) are just getting profits without paying taxes to the government. By enforcing a new regulation (as I know they are currently strict), I'm seeing people will only trust legal gambling operators as the new regulation might also involved a violation for people that keeps patronizing illegal gambling operator.

The question is, how much the additional tax that should be imposed?
