    Interesting read. The bit about China being able to police the Net kinda raised my eyebrows though LOL.

    Lumping Italy in with the naysayer countries like France, Germany, Holland et al was a bit out of date, too - bearing in mind the Italian about turn in favour of regulation.

    Good point. Didn't I read somewhere that Ladbrokes had secured 1xx licenses in Italy?

    Ah well... it was a good article nevertheless and hopefully, being in Newsweek, it will get some attention. At least, with the sudden wind change in Italy, perhaps the rest of Europe might snap out of it?
