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.
In my country, advertisements involving tobacco and alcohol are banned. You won't find any ads involving them. Even if there are sponsorship, they're shown in the name of something else. "Carlsberg Glasses." Something like that. Brand name and something else like water, soda or glasses. Not gonna lie because it is effective. I go to the liquor store and I haven't even heard half of the things they're selling.
And tobacco advertisements are straight up banned. They can't do anything. The government took it a step further and added a nasty picture of a dude with throat cancer and lung cancer in every box of cigarette no matter the brand. Except the imported ones. It's totally NSFW and people get disgusted by it.
Which country?
