Penalties for advertising illicit online gambling are severe for Google and Twitch.

The Italian Communication Authority fined Google and Twitch for showing ads promoting online gambling to Italian viewers, breaking the rules.

Google's YouTube got fined €2.25 million, and Twitch got fined €900,000. This isn't the first time Google broke these rules.

The Authority found Google and Twitch responsible for the ads because they partnered with the channels showing them.
