Australian gambling firm Dabble fined $1m for breaching self-exclusion register

ACMA fined betting company Dabble over $1m for sending 800+ messages to 165 gamblers on the BetStop self-exclusion register and failing to close accounts of 157 others. This is a regulatory enforcement action highlighting compliance failures in Australia's online gambling sector. The fine underscores ongoing scrutiny of gambling industry practices, though it is a routine regulatory penalty rather than a systemic shift.
