Yes, it's high time we shut down the kinder surprise gambling dens.

I mean, yeah. Showing what Kinder toy is inside is a small price to pay for a broad stroke gambling law.

It's going to take all kids products with the idea as kinder surprise. All campaigns where you might win something for buying a product you're going to buy anyway. All trading card games. I think there's even an argument to be made that it would make looters, battle royales, even Minecraft as gambling because the end result of your gaming experience is random. Broadstroking all random away simply doesn't work.

Not all random events. Just anything that requires payment to activate a randomised event / prize should be forbidden for children.
