Who is suing Absolute Poker? Who can sue? Who can be prosecuted? Who is going to be prosecuted? The answer to all those questions is no one.

Do you think this would be true in ACland?

[/ QUOTE ]

Um, I think you missed something. My position is that AP is operating in ACland.

[/ QUOTE ]
That's what I'm trying to argue against. It would much easier to sue AP (or individuals within it) in ACland, without state borders and other restrictions. This indicates to me that AP is not operating in an exact ACland, and/or that we can't use every particular of this example.

It would be much easier to sue AP if online poker were regulated instead there being feeble attempts to prohibit it. It would be no easier in ACland, and probably harder, because businessmen will take all kinds of shortcuts if all they have is a financial downside. Add risk of jail or even limited mobility and you have another layer of disincentives.
