FWIW, I've done some research on Wikipedia and it looks like the Isle of Man (where Stars is based) is in a different category than Gibraltar (where Party is based) in terms of its relationship with the United Kingdom. Whereas Gibraltar is a British territory, the Isle of Man is not technically part of the UK but instead something called a "crown dependancy".

Nate, I thought Stars was HQ'd in Costa Rica with operations in Isle of Man. So isn't the important jurisdiction wrt extradition Costa Rica? Also, I was under the impression that extradition is not an issue if the other country does not consider IG illegal?

All of this is a little unclear. Stars is owned by an Israeli who lives in Canada. It operates out of the Isle of Man, although I believe that they still may technically be contained within a Costa Rican holding company (not sure). All over the map, quite literally.

[/ QUOTE ]Stars are licensed and operate from IoM now, they still have some support staff in Costa Rica, but they are IoM domiciled, as are Neteller.
