Talkabout – Gambling inward Singapore (Part 7) : Legislation and Online Gambling
So how can you legislate against on- line gambling? At the moment, our gambling laws don’t especially address the problem of online gambling because they were drawn up before the net age and so there’s an element of uncertainty to what extent it is actually prohibited. How can you prosecute someone for betting inward a casino that is operating outside Singapore? The problem would also be one of enforcement.
So the next question is can on-line gambling sites be blocked? Can there be a blanket ban? The problem with any ban is that these technologies are goodness at hiding? You may block a URL which can then be masked so, as our expert lawyers on the panel argue, it’s therefore virtually impossible to block. inward the Worldwide there is a lot of opposition against gaming but as gambling operators are difficult to catch they go after the payment system instead under the Safe Port Act. So can Singapore innovate similar legislation and would it be effective?
To bring together the debate and regain out more about these difficult legal issues tune into Talkabout.
