Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland has introduced a way to the gambling operators to get regulated and has required Internet Service Providers to ban the IPs of the unregulated entities. Violators who are found to have circumvented the ban could face fines of up to €500,000.
These three countries have recently regulated their online markets and they have opted to rely on ISP to avoid illicit gambling activities. According to the authorities, engaging with this software would help improve their monitored iGaming environments.
But, according to sources, ISP blockings bring with them “significant gaps” as it is relatively easy for betors to access blocked operators, meaning that this measure will not have the expected effectiveness.
