contemplate regulation. We have to consider regulators’ possible responses to technological advances. Recent months have seen regulators speak publicly about the need to look more closely at digital platforms which would not have come within the remit of gaming laws some years ago. Accompanying, providing valuable input, and shaping regulatory developments is increasingly important for sound regulation in general. The scientific foundations of so-called Choice Architecture were laid by renowned scientists including Drs. Ariely, Kahneman and Thaler. In a book chapter, Martin Lycka and I invited the gaming industry to integrate Online Choice Architecture (‘OCA’) into their responsible gaming tools (see the Oxford University Press monograph ‘Responsible Gambling: Primary Stakeholder Perspectives’ edited by Shaffer, Blaszczynski, Ladouceur, et al.). Beyond that, OCA practices can of course be used for various reasons, including to push us towards the preferred choices of website operators. Think of a restaurant menu where the color or typeface of one dish may significantly boost take up of a high margin item at the expense of another. In online gaming, things can have great impact – like sound or unsound decisions between food options. Economist Rivers and his colleague cover some of these aspects in their piece that you will also find in this issue. Wishing you all an enriching and thoughtful reading under the palm tree or in your office. Yours sincerely, Simon planzer@planzer-law.com
