Anyone else have received UKCG - Cease and desist letters? I managed to get in the spotlight after listing a few unlicensed operators in my affiliate listings.
I can remove these, but I am wondering about the UK market, anyone else deep in it here?

Got it, thanks! Yes we do not want to end up like that, but I guess counter filings can be made?

I very much doubt it, the removals are marked as:

Notice Type: Government Request

Especially as you've also received a cease and desist. The next step would probably be a legal one.

The UKGC is a bunch of clowns and only reflects how the UK in recent years has turned into a totalitarian banana republic that loves to strangle peoples freedoms with constant regulations and bullying.

I don’t want anything to do with that country anymore. I refuse to do business with them and I even refuse to travel there. There are few countries I dislike as much as the UK. Even more so now with their communist dictator regime in power.

I don't promote non-licensed brands, but just be aware that the UKGC have been been submitting removal demands to google et al for this, eg:

https://lumendatabase.org/notices/34824360
https://lumendatabase.org/notices/46526382
https://lumendatabase.org/notices/43313542
https://lumendatabase.org/notices/38666524
https://lumendatabase.org/notices/35743806

and so on... just search the lumen database and you'll find tons of them.
Did you get this via gmail (google search console)?

I would just remove everything that is targeting that market. Better to play it safe.

Going forward, don't focus on a country. Make the website vague on who you
are actually targeting, so that you can't be pinned down. If you want to target a
country, just develop a page.. that you can easily remove if there are any issues.

UKGC - the united kingdom of gambling clowns...
The UK turned into a communist shithole country real quick. The UKGC are a bunch of megalomaniacs like the rest of their government who think they own the world and try to bully people to submission even if they are nationals of other countries.

F**k the UK. I am completely boycotting the whole country. Never in my life will I do business with them or travel there. People are even getting jailed for criticizing the government or posting the wrong meme. Zero free speech and their people getting f**ked hard by regulations.
