so it went through guys

who's deciding what's illegal tho, that's his point. acma keeps a list and the list can grow, and there's no court involved in putting a site on it
not saying he's right about where it ends up but the mechanism is worth understandin
 
went down the local last night and counted them out of interest. twenty two machines. four blokes on them at half seven on a friday and one of them was still there when i left. nobody is writing a bill about that room. everyone in canberra can tell you exactly how many ads went out during the third quarter of a game and not one of them has stood in that room
 
you're right and it's the oldest problem in this country. federal gets the headlines, states keep the machines and the revenue

what'll actually happen from january is the money moves. it doesn't stop being spent, it goes into affiliates, into search, into the stuff that doesn't look like advertising. i'd expect a lot of new "tipping" content that's technically editorial

that's not me defending anything by the way. it's just where budgets go when a channel closes
 
Affiliates are captured, actually. The definition of wagering advertising in the bill covers content by, on behalf of, or for the benefit of a licensed provider, and that reaches affiliates and platforms. Enforcement's another question entirely.
 
january's the thing to watch. everyone's arguing about what the words mean and none of it bites for four months
 
they'll get around to it in about 2045 when there's nobody left to lose anything. anyway im off to watch the footy and count the ads while i still can
