<![CDATA[In the modern era, technology and the internet have become inseparable parts of human life, especially for teenagers. While digital connectivity offers easy access to information and communication, it also brings serious risks—one of which is online gambling. Teenagers are particularly vulnerable due to their constant engagement with technology and the appeal of online gambling, which offers easy access, attractive bonuses, and low entry costs.
