Re: Neteller up. New Terms of Service
Dunkman - you will find this disclaimer on all gaming websites products or I would guess any relate industry. It is simply to cover their back in the event that Federal charges are pressed (or indeed legal procedings brought in some other country) and the individual says "Hey, I was allowed to use the service - I thought if was illegal I wouldnt be allowed to use it."
As others have posted here, Neteller is an international company and is regulated by UK law. It simply puts the onus on the comsumer to check their own legal position before using the service. Why should a UK company regulate itself according to US law? It shouldn't.
Saying this - if you are a US citizen using Neteller is not illegal. Using Neteller to fund gaming sites is also not illegal under the new legislation. I know that many State statutes make online gambling "illegal" for years but no action has been taken against punters by US authorities.
Whether or not their attitude will change now remains to be seen.
