Australias media regulator is taking action against unlawful wagering platforms. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) declared it will mandate internet service providers to restrict entry to 18 foreign websites. The ACMA received multiple grievances regarding these platforms and ascertained they were functioning in breach of Australian regulations. Websites on the prohibited list encompass Syndicate Casino, iLucki, and King Billy Casino. The ACMA is advising Australians to remove any money they may have placed on these platforms. Since 2019, the ACMA has blocked access to 222 illicit gambling websites. The ACMA states that its endeavors have resulted in over 100 unlawful operators departing the Australian market since 2017. The organization trusts that restricting access to these platforms will help to increase public knowledge about the risks of unlawful wagering.
Listen up, Australian telecommunications providers! The Australian Communications and Media Authority (your media regulator, for those playing at home) is reiterating the regulations concerning wagering promotions. It appears some providers were unclear on the specifics, prompting a crackdown. Any provider found in violation of these regulations could face service disruptions. Take this as a courteous heads-up!
