Filtering Out Online Casinos

The Polish government made a bold move this week with the announcement that as the country begins to filter out questionable internet content that the online casinos and internet gambling sites would be a part of that filtering process. The foreign internet gambling industry has been incredibly eager to watch the Polish gambling market emerge and grow, and this backlash coming now is alarming because it will potentially end all of those attempts to effective enter the Polish gambling market.

Beyond though the missed opportunities, filtering in any form internet content is a dangerous activity that has wide and far reaching repercussions that will severely alter the state of the internet as a whole, not even just the online casinos and questionable content being filtered. There are all sorts of freedom of speech concerns when a nation decides it’s appropriate to filter out content and block its citzens’ access to specific sites and specific genres of content…it begins for force internet users around the world to wonder how far the censorship through filtering will go once it becomes a common and standard practice.

China and Australia really generated the first buzz around the world when they announced plans to filter their country’s internet access (to exclude the online casinos, among other sites). Now with Poland actively attempting to filter content in that country, the Polish have really started to speak out against this trend and are now petitioning current Polish President Lech Kaczyński against this filtering attempt with a presidential veto.
