If this should be implemented will it affect bitcointalk casinos? As we all know most established and new casinos come to bitcointalk to launch their ANN thread and carry out signature promotion campaigns which can be regarded as ads in a sense. If ads should be banned will their promotion in Bitcointalk also end?
It's been a few months already since the news and so far nothing changed here on the forum. The ban seems to be focused on Australia and wasn't picked up by other countries. In my country I haven't heard about any political movement that wants to ban gambling advertising. When I look on all the ads we have over here it would be crazy to not allow gambling ads, but then all the other things. The most common ads I notice are either for alcohol or cigarettes. The huge hype about e-cigarettes and vapes can be seen on billboards on every big corner. It would be unfair to ban on specific industry and allow everything else. The question is also how such a law could be enforced if ads are only displayed online. Banning something in Australia should have no real impact for the majority of users here on the forum.
