Others : Ignoring the law

The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) passed by President George W. Bush strictly forbids American players to gamble at online casinos or to make money transactions with US financial companies.

Despite that the web security firm elected to supervise that the law is respected, noticed a 40% rise of the demand for online casino sites.Scan Safe included all these in the Global Threat Report a document that covers instant messaging viruses, and spyware.

Dan Nadir, Vice president of product strategy said that some unexpected visits to online gambling sites should have been made after adopting this new law. He added that gamblers are “flocking to these forbidden online casinos in order to continue their loved pastime.”

It was kind of hard for the addicted to stop playing online but to others the decision didn't come as a shock. The industry will blossom due to its internatonal success. Regular players will continue to play despite the strict law.
