Because you can gamble and see porn online, but you can't smoke or drink a website?


You can't "gamble or porn a website" either. But alcohol and nicotine companies have an online footprint, and you can buy alcohol and nicotine online.

Or in other words, there is web content that directly facilitates other 'habits' that are way more prevalent than gambling or adult content, so it stands to reason that if the intention is to break habits, the initial focus should be on the most prevalent habits.
