Just encountered this news -
"DuckDuckGo blocked in Indonesia over ..., gambling search results." which has dropped a bomb on me. I have never been in this country and always thought it is loyal to gambling. But it seems to be not. How does the matter lie at present? I wonder this because of my plans to visit Indonesia for a couple of weeks and when visiting countries for the first time I commonly show myself round the local casinos.
There are no local casinos in our country, even just for a gambling ticket shop. in other words, gambling is something that is illegal based on the jurisdiction in our country. although, there are many local online casinos that can be easily accessed without having to use tricks or the like. related to the title above, I really don't know and there is no news in the local media regarding your post. so, don't expect to find a land-based casino except in unofficial places. even then, with the risks that must be borne. Indonesia is a friendly place, I represent it because of our beloved country. there are many beautiful destinations, but unfortunately don't expect to find a land-based casino. does not mean it is not friendly to gambling, we even have stories from the kingdom era about games that involve betting. however, currently it is not legal and should be legalized. thus, people who like this one entertainment need not be afraid and are not considered a criminal. the benefits are also many, if Indonesia legalizes it. maybe not for now, someday it could be legal again.
Not sure though if Indonesia might want to legalized gambling, I mean it's predominantly Muslim and so with that the government is not wanting to go to that because of their religion. The thing though with gambling is that it's really affect all of us.
And the government of Indonesia is really not wanting their people to be addicted and so they cut or block this popular search engine. So for Indonesian gamblers here, maybe they can still access crypto related casinos and continue to gamble.
