I was very surprised when I saw gambling advertising in my mobile application, where I keep track of all expenses and income, and I have a feeling that it is very appropriate there, because I was thinking about what expenses I can cut and what income I could still come up with to replenish my family budget more. And in fact, this online casino advertising acts as if it offers such a "gambling" way to replenish the family budget.
And this is the case when advertising is appropriate, because when I watch videos on websites, the advertising that pops up there suddenly looks completely inappropriate and only causes irritation.

I also get very irritated by casino advertising in places on the Internet where it is inappropriate. For example, when I read an article about investments, for some reason an annoying online casino ad appears on a quarter of the window, and at first there is no cross that I can click to close it.
And when I was once again irritated by such advertising, I told myself that I would rather not go to the site of such advertising because of such a display of disrespect towards me.

That's really annoying. What's even more concerning is that these ads suddenly pop up on social media platforms that are used by many children and teenagers,
who then see online gambling casino ads.

Sometimes I wonder why some social media platforms allow this. They know that many platforms like Facebook have viewers who are mostly minors.
It's frustrating and worrying.
