Italy cracks down on online gaming.
Italy cracks down on online gaming. ISPs to block access to gaming sites as of 2/24/06
Effective February 24th Midnight all Italian Internet Service Providers will be subject to significant fines and arrest if they will fail to comply with article 1, chapters 535, 536, 537 and 538 of the new Financial Law of 2006. The new rule obliges all ISPs to block Italian internet users to access all the domains listed by the Italian Legislator (read list here). This is not the first time a European Country obliges ISPs to block access to online gaming sites. The Netherlands ruled something similar 3 years ago. While it is impossible to determine whether the new law will be applied to the letter, this drastic measure represents the fiercest attack ever brought to online gaming. Insiders and observes tend to believe that the Italian Government is ready to begin selling licenses to authorized operators. Industry operators also believe that the new rule sets the grounds for the Italian government to raise funds through issuance of online gaming licenses. Some operators confide having had their "geeks" work on solutions and workarounds to enable their Italian customers to continue to access their gaming portals.
