Kansspelautoriteit says gambling ads on NU.nl are not currently a breach

Regulation

Spokesperson Marloes Derks said the authority considers why visitors use a site and assesses each case separately; it saw no reason to intervene at NU.nl for now. The regulator previously acted over BetCity sponsorship in Scorito’s fantasy-sports app in 2022.
