Australia censoring online poker sites too?
The news that Australian governmnet is censoring illegal content web sites is getting boosted on Australian newspaper and television.
According to ACMA ( Australia communication and media authority ) minister, approximately more than thousand illegal sites are getting banned which includes sites related to child porn, violence & hatred, medical & drugs and to much surprise, online poker portals.
Yes, you have read it correctly, even online poker sites are under ACMA’s radar. Famous sites such as Party Poker, PokerStars, FullTiltPoker , Williamhill , Bwin and all other gambling sites are under ISP’s scanner.
This news is very bad for online gambling industry and many high profile gambling firms owners are not at all impressed with this decision of blocking of poker sites.
The question is, is there any AU minister which will take steps to avoide blacklisting of sites ?
