German Media Regulators Crack Down on Online Casino Ads

[e_abrams]

Earlier today, the German media finanznachrichten.de reported that the German broadcasting regulators sent out a letter to a great number of TV and radio stations, warning them to reconsider the broadcasting of casino-related advertisements. In the letter, the telecom regulatory bodies emphasise that the broadcasting of gambling ads is prohibited under the current legislation.

Different governments throughout the world will keep trying to find ways to prohibit gambling and gambling advertisements. But ultimately, they will never be able to really do anything harmful to our industry. They have been talking about banning gambling TV advertisements for so many years now and this still has never happened, and I'm certain that it won't.

Well, this crackdown is givin' them satisfactory results.

The stations are not supposed to run those ads. Seems like they can easily enforce a fine when they show gambling ads!
