Government's New Gambling Ad Opt-Out | Sydney News

from Sydney News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The government’s rolling out a new opt-out register to help users dodge online gambling ads — a one-stop shop to control what pops up while you browse. Part of broader gambling ad reforms, it also includes banning ads before/after live sports and stricter rules on tempting offers. But critics say it doesn’t go far enough, ignores key recommendations from last year’s report, and may be too complex to work. ACMA will run it, funded by a levy on betting firms — though rollout timing remains uncertain, with other restrictions possibly coming next year and this system taking longer to launch.
