Betting ads, really not in the spirit of MN

I really, really want to express my revulsion at adverts for 'betfair' and 'casumo:a casino' appearing on MN.

These are appearing on threads where people with emotional and mental health difficulties are posting, with lots of posters in very vulnerable positions, on threads discussing poverty, PND, and suicide FFS!

It's disgusting.

I think MN have responsibility to have a duty of care for its posters that may not have the wherewithal at present to make sound financial decisions. People should be protected from predatory companies like these that increase the suffering of the vulnerable.

Definitely not in the spirit of 'by parents, for parents'.

There have been a lot of issues recently with the ad content on MN. I really think it's time to scrutinise the company you're working with more carefully.
