    Germany online gambling ban could be overturned

    Once again Buzzy hopes he isn't treading on JonOfFinsbury's territory, but since this story is a couple of days old, I think we're good. EGamingReview has written an article that says the online gambling ban in Germany could be overturned.

    One of the 16 states that ratified the treaty approving the ban wants it canceled.

    From EGR:

    The leader of the FDP and the coalition in Schleswig-Holstein, Jürgen Koppelin, said that if the other German states failed to agree on a new uniform regulation to replace the Treaty, which came into force on 1 January last year, the coalition would seek to introduce an intrastate licensing system.

    German gaming lawyer Martin Arendts of Arendts Anwalte said that “the argument that only a monopoly can protect customers, prevent problem gambling and guard against fraud would not hold any more,” which would undermine the monopoly position of the other German states.

    As if they can filter all the gambling portals on the target states. Is there any guidelines for certain webmaster what will be the appropriate content they need to create to know such boundaries.
