That's what a government has to do in any way that they can. While our government is also doing its job. But I think that they should also do the same thing of ban these advertisements. In social media and national television, I am seeing the ads from the local casinos that they're fighting against. Because if they're just all talk, they're not really into the people and wanting to reduce the addiction which is caused mostly by the minors. So from the usual visual ads that they're trying to delay to make sure that no kid will see them, is an act of good will.
very well government need to work more on social media and for that it restrictions on social media will definitely eliminate all form of gambling advertising that get to u see age via social media which have taken over the advertising market today, if the government redirect the energy to combat social media exposure it will definitely solve the problem.
Here in my country, we don't see much publicity from gambling sites on our streets as government have banned street advertising and viewbaord space is quite expensive, social media become the next big destination for all the banned services operating with in the country.
Not allowing kids to see gambling ads is pretty much better for them, it is proven that children falls victim easily and that the lack of self control in them is very high.
However, it would be even more good to avoid site registration of teens under certain age to avoid them.
If you can't keep up with the ads to influence yourself also, you can opt out in the ones on social media, I think the option available.
