Self-exclusion for all of Germany?

This country despite obvious contradiction; an attempt is made to centralize the Internet; borders on schizophrenia.

Contrary to everyone's logic, 'pseudo' laws are subsequently created which are intended to suddenly give the free Internet a local character.

Well-known mistakes are made again and boundaries are drawn.

Complete insanity in the attachment of the structure of the Internet, which is not only in a certain place, but worldwide; insofar as electricity is available; solely due to the connection of several computers.

Nothing with European Union, United Nations, globalization or even free world competition!

We have created a situation in the online casino sector in which we have made ourselves uncompetitive.

A number of casinos have therefore either closed completely, blocked German IP addresses or are trying to use the ridiculous German one

online gambling license to continue.

Let's be honest: who is so stupid that they look out for thousands of reputable casinos where you have demonstrably worse chances of winning, with extra botched games in which betting limits, 5 seconds spin timer and many other adjustments spoil the fun very quickly?

I must say I agree with your last summarization. The local laws and limitations unintentionally lead players to casinos without German licenses. 🙁

The problem is the resulting criminalization. It is difficult to see through whether you are acting in accordance with the law.

This is a point that can have very serious consequences.

Urgently here is a clear solution,

a simplification and harmonization with international law is necessary.

Well, obviously.

As you can see, we in Casino Guru - namely Šimon - are working on a complex set of solutions resulting in

Global Self-exclusion Tool.

What do you say about such an initiative, I wonder?

In and of itself very good that you take the initiative.

I would like to know more details, maybe I can make a contribution?

Best regards Simon

Now i have seen the link you ve sended.. 😎

Great, I'm sure every support is appreciated. Don't hesitate to use the "get in touch" feature. 🙂

We have created a situation in the online casino sector in which we have made ourselves uncompetitive.

I originally missed your post about the situation in German gambling, but I'm glad I found it now. We discuss it on a regular basis with our colleagues in Casino Guru, but with players as well.

In the UK, they have a different issue where players who are blocked in all UK licensed casinos via GAMSTOP start looking for different options and then they end up playing in casinos that may don't have any license at all. They basically block themselves from the casinos that are the best and safest for them and then they play elsewhere. Only the global self-exclusion would be a solution here.

Contrary to this, the "new" German law created an absurd situation where German players are forced to play in casinos that are generally worse for them (due to the rules they need to obey) or they play in casinos that accept the German players illegally. My brain still isn't able to process the fact that someone in Germany came up with the law and the law was accepted. It really harms all the Germans who want to play casinos online.

Off course, in fact, a completely new authority was subsequently created from scratch.

Complete with office and administration buildings. To my knowledge, many times more office space was rented or acquired than the 'authority' has employees!

The handful of existing employees were let loose on the market without clear guidelines. The only orientation is the latest version of the more than questionable 'new German online gambling contract'

It's all more symbolic.

If you really wanted to do something, you would need a lot more personality.

Not to mention the surveillance technology that would be required. Instead, a couple of show trials are going on against a couple of big ex-German online casinos.

Ironically, it seems to get caught against the fairest and safest casinos. As a bad example, this should then cause all other casinos to stick to the contract.

I suspect you are talking about the GGL, am I right? 🤔

In your opinion, does a real chance of changing this (in my eyes) absurd situation come soon?

Call me a heretic, but I'm beginning to think it would be far more reasonable to ban whole gambling rather than put German players into this trap.

Yes its the GGL.

Well, not much to say from my point of view now, aside from the heretic idea 😀.

Let's see whether we are about to witness other German players interested in this topic. 🤔

Yes, theoretically you can ban as much as you want. Practically leaves

not really do anything about it since there is / will not be a uniform consensus internationally.

This is a strong point, I'd say.

Speaking about common goals, are you familiar with this Global Self-Exclusion Initiative?

The current task is monumental:

"While working on specific solutions for the GSES, we realized that online gambling lacks unified standards for self-exclusion. This creates a significant gap in terms of the effectiveness of self-exclusion within the industry, and within the global system as a whole. To address this issue, the next 18 months will see the Initiative focus on a collaborative project involving research and key stakeholders."

Yes, I've looked at it before. It certainly makes sense for a lot of people.

At the end of the day, everyone has to pull the ripcord for themselves if they get into problems through gaming and then it's like everything else.

The dose makes the poison.

And of course the better one:

You make your own luck!

I'm glad you agree. Though the path to the final lap is far away, the necessity of such a tool is obvious.

I can't imagine what it's like to feel this way and to fight such a demanding battle.

Yet, I thank you for your wise words!

Please.. !

I wish everyone to be happy.

Happiness is equally distributed in every heart!
