A new gambling ad crackdown is here, but it’s far from perfect. The government and Coalition have rolled out a self-regulated opt-out register funded by betting companies, with rules tightening on live TV ads and new restrictions on bonuses for new and vulnerable customers. Yet critics are furious — problem gamblers’ advocates say the industry is being asked to police itself while still pushing huge incentives to addicts. After years of delay and political maneuvering, including backlash from within their own party, this compromise leaves kids still bombarded with ads during live sports — a glaring gap that raises serious questions about whether this deal truly tackles the root problem.
