Public broadcaster SBS will allow allow users of its streaming video service to opt out of seeing advertisements for betting companies, alcoholic beverages and quick service restaurants. SBS On Demand viewers who chose to block such content will instead see ads for other products and services. SBS MD James Taylor says viewers have always had complete control over what they watch on SBS On Demand, and they will now have greater control over the ads they see. He expects other TV networks to consider a similar move. The federal government plans to impose greater restrictions on gambling advertisements.
