This policy includes legal action against online gamblers, including serious threats to perpetrators who deliberately distribute electronic information that has gambling content24. Handling Negative Content: Policies in the downstream sector involve handling negative content by blocking content and applications with gambling elements. The goal is to reduce the development of online gambling in society. Penal and Non-Penal Handling, Online gambling countermeasures are carried out penal and non-penal. Penal countermeasures involve legal actions such as imprisonment and fines, while non-penal countermeasures involve prevention and community empowerment efforts3. Future Policy: to anticipate gambling crimes in the future, the government can use penal means. Some of the alternative formulation policies that will be revamped include the addition of additional criminal penalties, such as the revocation of the right to practice the profession for makers who commit gambling crimes in carrying out their profession.
