Online gambling is a growing problem, I think the FBI estimates that it’s growing at a rate of $10 billion a year,” said Patrick Kiernan, FBI special agent.
A multi-billion dollar industry that’s illegal.
Recently, U.S. lawmakers banned online gambling in the U.S. with the passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006.
That act put an end to Internet casinos based in the U.S. So those casinos took their business to foreign countries.
It’s known as offshore gambling and it’s a way to get around the law, proving traditional borders don’t exist when it comes to the worldwide Web.
And that allows Americans like Brian to continue playing.
multi billion a year that’s illegal.
