Greens Reject Gambling Ad Opt-Out | Sydney News

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

Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young is slamming Labor’s online gambling ad opt-out plan as a confusing, half-baked “smokescreen” that misunderstands the internet — and she won’t support it. Instead of the government’s messy one-stop-shop idea, she backs an opt-in model where users actively choose to see gambling ads. She accuses the government of avoiding a real ban, possibly due to political pressure, while also criticizing Liberal leaders for not pushing harder on consumer protection. With the bill poised for passage this week — potentially with Coalition backing — the Greens remain firm, arguing the current proposal fails to tackle the real issues in digital advertising.
