I find threads like this really annoying.
You are falling exactly into the “fear trap”.
Nothing happened. A law passed the house and is stalling in the senate, like has happened twice before. No changes there.
A man was arrested and charged with taking sports bets over the telephone. We have known that to be illegal for decades.
So what on earth is everyone going on about?
This is the “chilling effect” and eactly what was intended to happen.
