Good, fuck gambling. Look at cigarettes, no more ads and the usage has dropped like crazy. I don't know any young people under 20 that smoke.
This is why we need government intervention on gambling
What happened with smoking didn’t happen overnight
It started with them banning advertising, next came the smoking ban in public places, then we had the warning labels put on packs and now (in Scotland anyways) cigarettes are not even allowed to be visible behind the counters in shops
Sadly a lot of the gambling industry have gotten ahead of things already, leveraging streamers and shit to indoctrinate kids into the habit.
