They'll ban online gambling, but they won't ban online pornograpny, which is a FAR greater danger.

IT's not a total ban, they just banned the sites they can't bilk. This legislation was never about protecting people, it's about money.

"They'll ban online gambling, but they won't ban online pornograpny, which is a FAR greater danger."

Right! This is exactly what I posted on a thread yesterday. With all the talk about this being a "pander to the Christian right wing" nobody has brought up the failure to ban porno. OK, I'll admit they tried at one point, and I'll even admit that they are striving to go after internet pedophiles, etc. But I still do not know the real reason why this was done.

That's damn near impossible, because much of it is free. All this bill does is make it illegal to accept money off a credit card for gambling sites.
