Default IP addresses to gambling sites wil be blocked can this be true ?

This weekend the US Congress passed a bill which will outlaw Internet gambling in the United States. The new law will ensure that gamblers who try to enter online gambling sites from American IP addresses will be blocked and that the online gambling companies can no longer accept bets placed via credit cards with billing addresses in the United States.

Credit cards are a thing of the past anyway.lot's of credit cards are already blocked.But i did find these very funny;




And another post on Shoemoney from PartyPartners.com (PartyPoker) :
What is the impact of the act on our business?
PartyGaming will no longer accept wagers from US customers once the act becomes law.
Customers resident in the United States, or accessing us from the USA will no longer be able to access our real money gaming services. Customers will still be able to use our play money and non-gambling services. They will also be able to cash out their present balance if they wish to.
There will be no impact for non-US customers.


If they wish to No i don't want it, you can keep my money s

A book may choose to block it but if a book is independently owned no way would they block it.

i dont think so. this is the first i've heard about any ip's being blocked. is it even possible for isp's to figure out all gambling sites and block them?

would it even be legal to do that? if that isnt cencorship, what is?

Before worrying about blocking gambling sites, maybe the US gov could look at banning kiddie porn sites or sites that show people how to build pipe bombs. Bigger fish to fry folks.
