But Think Of The Children... Gambling!
But Think Of The Children... Gambling!
07/27/2004 12:37 PMIt's good that there's a group watching out for issues concerning
children and technology, but it would be nice, for once, if they could
stop with their fear-mongering misleading announcements. Children's
charity NCH in the UK, which is good at getting publicity for their
causes, never seems to get questioned at all by the press. This is
the group that put out a ridiculously misleading story
blaming
the internet for child porn and then produced a very carefully
worded study to misleadingly suggest that
3G
phones were a threat to children. Their latest piece of artwork
is a report
sug
gesting that 11-year-olds are gambling online in the UK, but which
gives no evidence to support that at all. What they did was convince
one 16-year-old girl to sign up for a variety of gambling sites with a
debit card and to lie about her age. She apparently got into many of
them. From this, they point out that many banks will give out debit
cards to people as young as 11, and thus, 11-year-olds can now gamble
online. Of course, beyond convincing an underage girl to lie, the
group also gives everyone the
full list of online
casinos where (apparently) 11-year-olds can gamble. Now, they're
completely right that these sites need better age verification
measures. However, stories about 11-year-olds gambling online should
have a little more factual basis than a 16-year-old told to lie.

Mobile Gambling Unlikely To Be In The US
Any Time Soon
Mobile Gambling Unlikely To Be In The US
Any Time Soon
04/27/2004 12:59 PMWhile folks over in Europe have been pushing forward with
mobile
gambling, it's
unlikely
to come to the US any time soon. If gambling from your own
computer is already forbidden, it seems unlikely that they would let
anyone gamble on the go as well. Of course, the company discussed in
the article is trying to initially target casinos, so that people at a
casino could keep gambling on their mobile phone even if they're not
on the floor. That becomes a slightly trickier situation, because
they're in the casino itself already - it's just that the gambling
mechanism has gone portable. Where's the boundary? What if a casino
handed out a mobile gambling device instead of letting you use your
own phone?
Newspaper Calls Gambling What It Is

04/24/2004 09:08 PMNot once in this LA Times story (reg req) about
Native American casinos' gambling revenues -- and whether the casinos
should pay more to the state -- do you find the word "gaming," I'm
happy to note.
The gambling industry has tried to sanitize what it does by renaming
the activity into something that sounds totally benign. And the media
usually plays along. Not this time. A tip of the hat to whoever made
that decision.

California, the Gambling State
California, the Gambling State
08/29/2004 10:53 PM(This is also my Sund
ay column in the San Jose
Mercury News.)
A classic example of audacity is the man who kills his parents and
asks for clemency on the grounds that he's an orphan. A few weeks ago,
a California gambler who lost a bundle online joined a lawsuit against
search engines that sell advertising for Internet gambling sites.
The case, filed in state court in San Francisco, is just one example
of our society's utterly inconsistent and hypocritical treatment of
gambling. We love it, we hate it, we use it, and we are being wounded
by it.
I would never suggest banning it. Yet I'm puzzled by people who gamble
online or offline, because they're usually working against stacked
odds. Over time, they're likely to lose. Still, we allow many
potentially harmful activities, on the principle that freedom means
the freedom to make mistakes.

Online Gambling... For A Living
08/09/2004 06:09 AMWhile the US continues to ban online gambling (and look for ways to
stop anyone who dares to find non-US-based sites to keep on gambling),
the UK has
decided it's better to just regulate online gambline --
especially as some players seem to be making something of a career out
of it. Of course, the online poker player they talk to seems to have
made a career out of beating Americans who shouldn't be gambling
online anyway: "The best time to play is between 4am and 7am," she
explains, "because the Americans are playing - and they're drunk."

PayPal To Fine For Porn, Gambling
PayPal To Fine For Porn, Gambling
09/10/2004 08:40 PMBilly Budd writes in to point out that PayPal is now going to
start
fining people $500 if they use PayPal in
association with porn, gambling or buying unauthorized prescription
drugs over the internet. That's certainly quite a big step beyond
just banning those types of transactions. Obviously, they know that
plenty of people are still using PayPal for these purposes -- and this
is their attempt to scare them off. Seems a bit extreme, of course,
and only means that other services are likely to spring up to fill the
gap.
