I was condescending. But I wasn't wrong, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What is on the books, as a criminal or civil violation, and what are the policies of the local gaming commission, as well as what's actually enforced on the ground, mean that laws differ from policy. It sounds like Google may be complying where they're not legally required to or wouldn't face fines for.

I'm not an expert but as I understand it, laws are a component of policy. By at least one definition policy broadly encompasses how those laws are implemented, and enforced, as well as regulations that aren't technically part of legal code.

It's a nitpicky distinction, but an important one, and one I wouldn't have even been concerned about had you not taken the Very Smart tone.
