Hi,

> BTW, the proposed law, being done by lawyers, will have the list of

you say law.... but this idea of blocking all competitors to the states
lotto sounds very unlawful and anti-competitive  - yes, I can
understand states or countries blocking ALL gambling , thats a simple
'we dont allow it here' , but to say 'yes, you can access just ours'
well, in EU I dont think that would ever fly.

well, one could say people might be more determined to access porn than
gambling sites so this gambling block might be more successful.

either way, what you'll get are a host of DNS services based in other
countries - some using VPN technology etc so blocking port 53 to
other servers isnt going to work on that score either.  it wont work.
