Humanity is just the worst. Who the fuck is glorifying gambling besides the parasites running the gambling?

We need anti addiction laws passed in marketing and sales.

We already do have such laws (it is it a voluntary industry code?)

There is a statement after each audio/video but if the ad appears on your phone you will probably skip past the warning and only hear the first few seconds which subconsciously still influences some people into gambling.
