Ban targeted-advertising involving gambling

Additional Information

Targeted advertising - in which a person's behavior and history is tracked and used to serve relevant advertising on websites or via email - is already a questionable activity, and quite possibly an invasion of privacy in itself.

Advertising any form of gambling is by itself another questionable activity, justifiably the same as advertising cigarettes or other highly addictive, life-destroying substances or activities.

We would like you to make serving targeted advertising of gambling products or services to be made illegal, so that the companies engaging in this disgusting practice may be held accountable for their actions. This should include adverts served on websites, as well as direct email campaigns.
