I can't tell if this comment is really serious. In case it needs explanation, you don't ban gambling advertising by having a censor watch every ad and then decide which ones to allow. You pass a law that says "no advertising gambling" and then if someone does it, you prosecute them.

Somebody has to look at it to decide it should be banned.

If you ban it it's no longer going to be produced, and all things don't affect all brains equally.

As someone mentioned men are more likely to gamble, I'm sure (but don't quote me on this) that ADHD is over represented as well.

If you broadcast an ad to 10 million people and 1k gets hooked it's still 1k too many lives ruined, while being an annoyance to the other ~10 million

Marxism has resulted in the death of at least 100 million people. Should we ban Marxist content from HN?
