Online gaming sites ordered by US judge to block traffic
Last month, a Kentucky judge surprised many by seizing the domain names of a number of gambling websites that took bets from Kentucky citizen. This week, the judge modified his unique approach by ordering the same internet sites to install software blocking Kentucky citizens from access to their sites. The companies have 30 days to comply, otherwise the seizure order will be re-invoked.
