I wonder why Vegas companies didn’t push back against the legalization of online gambling like we saw alcohol and tobacco companies do with marijuana. Perhaps most of them already have their hand in that pie, which is why it’s okay. Same thing with how tobacco companies stopped fighting legalization of weed once they became the dominant players.
That was driven by Vegas companies, I remember seeing Bally’s and MGM logos on a bunch of online gambling sites/apps when it was first getting started. I don’t think they realized just how viral the internet is, and how fast another entity can spin up and eat their lunch.
That’s a great point to bring up.
