YouTube will expand its enforcement on gambling-related material to include digital goods with monetary value--such as in-game skins, cosmetics, and NFTs--if they are linked to non-Google-certified gambling sites or apps.

I may be ignorant on this, but what are Google-certified gambling sites or apps? Does it mean that if I pay money to Google I will be able to have violent/gambling content on the platform?

It means if it's a professional poker tournament, or horse betting stream. From a properly regulated and sanctioned sourced then your fine.

If your gambling fucking counter strike skins. Your not fine.

Which is exactly in line with what the law is. Vegas casinos are fine, illegal underaged child gambling is not.

Maybe they are sites or apps that pay for Google ads?
