    Seriously though, I'd not heard anything about new German legislation -- and how is this going to impact the other "big three" software providers?

    Does this mean that online gaming is against the law for Germans?

    Check out Casinomeister News - this ban came in on January 1st.

    The European Union compliance guys are not happy about it and the Germans could be facing legal sanctions.
