Online Casinos Wrong Focus

The information age has transformed the world over the past several decades and research studies recently indicate that the internet and the new forms of technology are changing the patterns of our brains in ways that are not entirely beneficial. There is huge controversy over the online casino gambling industry in the US, and the focus of social conservatives is on this gambling industry instead of the larger issue. The new research coming out indicates that online casinos are only one slice of the problem and that internet addictions are actually the real issue rather than the focus on specific niche industries that operate via the internet. The Republicans may be spotlighting the wrong issue and are focusing new legislation off of the real problem – the internet as a medium.

Last week a research study indicated that the internet, cell phones, video games and the myriad of other electronic devices are having a much stronger effect on humans and the human brain than has been suggested in the past. In fact, the rapid stimulation of electronic devices are changing the behaviors of the human race – and it has nothing to do with whether or not online casinos were played or if you use the internet to read news portals. It’s a much larger issue that is a foundational part of how technology and the internet have shaped us into a much more impulsive (sometimes compulsive) and impatient population. The easy access of technology means that instant gratification is possible. For this reason there is a lot of talk right now that some of the anti-online casino gambling attention should be refocused into new legislation that better addresses the real concerns facing the US and the rest of the world.

Further, there continues to be no indication that the online casinos represent any more of a danger than land based gambling and the pervasive fear and assertions that internet gambling is addictive like crack cocaine is just not the case.
