Restrict UK based social media influencers advertising crypto casinos

Closed 36 signatures

What the petition asks

The government needs to follow its licensing requirements on crypto casinos and include a ban on the promotion of unlicensed crypto casinos from UK based social media influencers. We are concerned there are no safety features available for these crypto casinos.
Therefore, a ban should be made on the advertisement of these crypto casinos in line with the current restrictions on the casinos themselves. We believe UK based influencers with a UK audience should not be allowed to promote these potentially harmful products to their audience.
