This sits within the state's broader enforcement pattern testing unlicensed-gambling theory across platform types, alongside the standing suits against Coinbase and Gemini for crypto and prediction-market products and the newly escalated civil suit against KalshiEX, LLC. No app-store, ISP-blocking, search-de-listing, or affiliate-marketing platform restriction specific to gambling was identified as a new instrument this cycle; the distribution-platform dimension remains defined by the Valve litigation's unresolved outcome rather than by a finalized rule.
