Dutch Gambling Industry Sues Meta Over Illegal Gambling Ads
The Dutch association for legal gambling operators, VNLOK, has filed a lawsuit against Meta, alleging that nine out of ten gambling advertisements on Facebook originate from illegal sites. The organization claims Meta removed fewer than one in six illegal ads during May and June despite repeated warnings from VNLOK chairman Björn Fuchs. Consequently, the industry group is urging the Dutch parliament to approve measures allowing the Kansspelautority to fine platforms like Meta for failing to curb illegal gambling advertising effectively.
