This article examines the online gambling advertising regulations in Spain currently in effect to assess the actual protection of underage youth. In recent years, online gambling among youth has increased. Through advertising, online gambling companies incite and encourage an involvement that can be harmful for vulnerable audiences. Some studies have demonstrated that advertising influences youths' assessment of gambling by increasing its appeal. We demonstrate that the shortcomings of the legal framework in force results in effective vulnerability of minors. We claim that society should seek to implement a regulatory framework to protect children from the risk of developing an addiction.
本文审视了西班牙目前生效的网络赌博广告监管规定,以评估对未成年青少年的实际保护情况。近年来,青少年网络赌博现象有所增加。通过广告,网络赌博公司煽动并鼓励人们参与其中,而这可能会对易受影响的受众造成伤害。一些研究表明,广告通过增强赌博的吸引力来影响青少年对赌博的认知。我们证明,现行法律框架的缺陷导致未成年人实际上处于易受伤害的境地。我们主张,社会应寻求实施一个监管框架,以保护儿童免受成瘾风险的影响。
