There are many people against online gambling, but this is due mainly to the fact that many people have been harmed and many people have lost their lives gambling online. This does not mean that all online gambling venues are unsafe. Many of the regulated online gambling sites are required to abide by very strict consumer protection laws. These laws are designed to protect the consumer and to ensure that the sites carry a high level of professionalism. The state of California is an example of a state that has made online gambling against the law and these laws have been enforced to the letter. However, as with anything in life there are grey areas, and as with anything there are always exceptions to the rules, and there is an argument that online gambling should be legalized since many people feel it destroys family values.

There are many online gambling sites that are required to abide by the laws of the respective countries they operate in, however they are also required to adhere to local online gambling laws. The different types of online gambling include sports betting, lottery syndication, poker and bingo and casino gaming. All of these types of sites have to adhere to the various laws and regulations that apply to each respective country.
