What are people thinking of doing in response to this effort in MN? It is the second state to put site operators and gamblers on notice that they will be enforcing this ban within the state. They have notified the ISPs that they may no longer allow people to connect to 200 named websites. FullTilt is among them. I have written to my legislators, the governor and the Commissioner of Public Safety. We need a major outcry so this does not go forward and spread to other states. In MN we are being told to withdraw our $$. I have not as yet and am waiting to see what Full Tilt has to say.

I'm sure any censorship effort will lose in the courts.. it's just a matter of time.

And, fwiw, while Full Tilt has a website, connecting through the software is not connecting to a website

The people who compiled the list are morons. They left off some big poker rooms, like Stars, but included several sites that don't even accept US players.

yes it looks like 90% of this list is just online casinos. Maybe we will be ok, but like no more visiting fulltilt poker.com Sad

but we can still use the site Smile

I seen the ip address i wonder if that IS just for the site or does the software hook up to it. I mean they have been pretty retarded about everything else thus far. them blocking the site but not the software would not suprise me in the least at this point.
