(July 21, 2025) – Meta has taken down the Facebook pages of 20 influencers promoting illegal online gambling.

The digital advocacy group Digital Pinoys made initiative to take down Facebook pages that promote e-gambling on the platform. Among the influencers affected are Boy Tapang with 5.5 million followers, Sachzna Laparan with 9.7 million followers, Kuya Lex TV with 100,000 followers, and Mark Anthony Fernandez with 242,000 followers.

For sure there’ll be another batch coming. Some might’ve promoted illegal gambling in the past and already stopped, but I think they’re still gonna be held accountable for it.
Good move by the government, and I think Meta only acted because the government requested it.

That's the consequence when you are only after the money and you didn't consider what possibility may happen, and now that the government do the kind of actions against those vloggers who are promoting e-gambling surely we will see more names especially those known names who are promoting this kind of business, not going to be surprise if there are popular names that will also affected.

And thats it!, We've been just that talking about these consequences and now we've seen these banning or blocking up these accounts now just because of what they've been advertising. Actually gambling in the Philippines is legal but the ones they've been promoting are the illegal ones and since considering that these companies does have the money or funding that they can produce out on marketing then you would be able to expect that there would be those people who would be taking out the bait and would be that promoting blindly without even trying out to see on what are the potential effects or outcome that they would be having when the time comes on which considering that they've been that promoting something illegal or not registered then expect that government wouldnt be that allowing for these stuffs to take run on or would be that letting it slipped into their hands specially if we do speak about taxation then government wouldnt be that going easy or just that make them to be happy forever. Now, that we've seen these blocking and prohibitions into their accounts then it would be having that domino effect on which basing up on the article then it do already have that 20 accounts being blocked as of this moment and for sure the lists would be that continue. We can expect that it would be that more longer because recently if we do speak about on how many people that been promoting gambling then it is already that quite rampant and considering winto these developing countries and we do have that social media exposure then tons of people would be that affected on this one or would be that influenced out. There are already tons of gambling addiction situations or problems that being known and raised up on which we can definitely be somewhat be able to blame out into those people who do keep on spamming out on promoting gambling without minding about other peoples situation or potential effect into it. This is why im that amazed into those people who do have that tons of followers but havent been able to accept out those generous promotions with those gambling companies and decided to go with that ethical path and continue into their own interest without disrupting themselves into those gambling promotion offers on which we can say that it is that big but they havent let themselves getting blinded by it.
