Kentucky DoJ Spokesperson

You just can’t escape the news about the Kentucky online casino domain name seizure case – the issue went from a small state conflict to an international side show in just the matter of a month. The international online gambling industry is watching the case closely because of the impact this ruling could have in the international sector. GambleCraft has already outline some of the defense team’s strategy and their argument for the domain name seizure. A representative from the Kentucky Justice Department, Jennifer Brislin, released some additional information about the case that elaborates on not only why the state is looking to seize the domain names of more than 141 online casinos, but also what the state hopes to accomplish in the long run with the domain name seizure.

The cynics in the industry media have clearly pointed to a bit of greed and protectionism at the root of the proposed domain name seizure – Kentucky Governor Beshear has even acknowledge that some of his issue with the online casino gambling issue stems directly from the fact that the internet gambling sites pull serious revenue from the land betting and gambling companies. But there is apparently a bit more to it… or maybe not.

Brislin recently noted that the state hopes to recoup some of the lost funds from the seized online casino gambling sites by way of compensation for past actions. Additionally, the state notes that its intentions are largely honorable – they just want to force the internet gambling companies to block Kentucky residents so that the residents will head over to the land gambling and betting venues.
