Australian here. Answer: No, nope, negatory. First hand encounters with high school aged teens addicted to online gambling, in particular slot machines or pokies as we call them, following the lead of influencers who will wager $10AUD per spin and post win porn to insta/tiktok. Online casino gaming is banned in Australia and requires technical ability to access and establish accounts. They’re also hooked on disposable vapes which are illegal in Australia but are sold openly in every city/town nationwide, along with imported asian cigarettes and Tobacco. Shops are raided a couple times a year but are never left closed for long, there’s normally a few kids retailing at most schools. We also have hoards of teenagers “terrorising” public roads on high powered e-bikes, again illegal to operate outside of private property in Australia. I can only speculate as to the percentage of these young ones who’s gambling, vaping, and vehicular menacery was facilitated by their carers but I know that $3000-$7000AUD Surrons don’t grow on trees. These changes will be unpopular with teens, parents and the companies required to enforce them, there is almost no way this happens, as much as I believe it is truly imperative. I’d be happy to be proven wrong, but our governments do not have a good track record with this stuff.
