Addiction will become more prevalent because it’s in your pocket

Addiction will become far more prevalent because these companies are soending billions studying how users behave to maximize the amount of gambling each user does, learning how best to lure them back after a user stops gambling

I don’t have a problem with gambling being legal, but doing it like this will be an absolute disaster. At a minimum, they need the cigarette treatment – no advertising, limits on how/when it can be done

Users shouldn’t be getting push notifications to bet on fucking ping pong at 2am because the algorithm determines that was the best way to turn a gambling problem into a full blown addiction
