I’m going with: Yes. All of them. Most of the time. And the charitable projects too. Normie winners are distractions. Anonymous winners could be anyone or no one. Regulators don’t regulate, they are there for show, an air of authenticity but really a ruse. I always saw it as a socialist tax on the poor. The UK lottery began under the Blair government to huge philanthropic fanfare and has been touted as a great charity ever since. It’s actually a strictly controlled state run monopoly. The number picking used to be prime time ceremonial TV on Saturday nights once a week for years. Then over time, other games came in on other days of the week, scratch cards, online lottery games (“win £10k a month for life”) - all managed by the same operator - such that all the results stopped being televised or even transparent and are all done in secret and issued announced over he internet or TV infomercials. Add to this the fact that every lottery ticket entered is known ahead of actually “picking” the numbers, it would likely only take simple math and basic software to build tools to manipulate outcomes and create the perception of statistical legitimacy.
