Florida attorney general seeks details on sweepstakes casino advertising
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier sent letters to Google, Meta, Reddit, Snap and TikTok asking what steps they have taken to prevent advertisements for named online sweepstakes casinos from reaching Florida residents. He gave the companies until 23 October to respond, alleging that the platforms operate without state gambling licences and that advertising them may violate state law; his office did not accuse the technology companies of operating the casinos.
Platforms face state scrutiny over whether their safeguards prevent advertisements for unlicensed sweepstakes casinos from reaching Florida residents.
