Blocking the Ads in Worry

The European Union has a pretty unique internet gambling market right now – one that has actually caused a lot of international strife and conflict because the EU government is not supporting the European Commission in its attempts to create a fair and open European gambling market. With the EU government in the spotlight these days in the industry media, a citizen campaign is looking to create a movement that would force the European Parliament to formally address the situation at hand in Europe – the blatant monopolies and protectionist policies of several EU member states. The Right2Bet campaign launched in the latter half of last year and centered on raising signatures so that the initiative could force the government to make a decision.

The tacit approval through non-action is what angers most within the online casino gambling industry. There is no way that the EU government is going to support countries like Sweden, Greece and others in their attempts to block all foreign internet gambling competition – but that is just precisely what is happening when the government refuses to step in and give an opinion.

The latest news though out of this entire debacle is the fact that several major EU nations have blocked the advertising spoofs created by the Right2 Bet campaign. The spoofs gave a comical spin to the current situation but did not portray those involved positively, particularly those countries that have taken the protectionist measures to block the free trade of goods and services between EU member-states.
