Great find! Good article.
Wow, this was a really great read, thank you
This is the comment that really hits home for me and knowing it’s a true statement really sucks.

There is, to my knowledge, no center for Al-Qaida hacking, nor is terrorism as an industry big enough to attract much third-party software development. But ally the interests of terrorists and Internet gamblers who all want to be paid, that’s a $20 billion incentive to corrupt the world financial system — an incentive that didn’t exist before last week.
The US paranoia concerning terrorism is a little bit extreme. Yes terrorists could get involved in internet gambling, just like they could get involved in selling shoes. How do you know Al Bundy wasn’t a terrorist funneling his earnings away from his wife and kids to a rogue cell?
Fantastic read, thank you.
My inital views on why this has happened, was that Frist needed to appeal to the conversative groups which will make him their preferred leader when it comes to the presidental race. Making it harder for anyone else contest against him as the preffered republician leader.
What better way then to attack an industry such as internet gambling( myths and mis truths to get people to follow you), and then to gain further support by using terms such as terrorism without evidence to back up such unsubstanitated claims.
Great article. Right on the money. The sad thing about this bill, aside from the implications to affiliates is the continued loss of privacy. Doesn’t anyone in the government remember the book/movie 1984? I guess in the name of protecting each of us from terrorist, we will cease to have freedom of choice. Hello Big Brother.
