Re: iMEGA newsletter re lawsuit and the California decision, among oth
"Problem is that Party Poker, Firepay and other online gambling business' exodus from US market was self-inflicted and not necessarily required by UIGEA."
How many of their players remained in the US, how many of their affiliates lost business because of their flight ?
Let's assume that Party left because it feared staying would violate the UIGEA, (they said as much). That means the Act caused an injury in fact to Party's players and business partners in the US, not to mention US investors.
That Party ran off and was not prosecuted is not too relevant, DOJ has threatened prosecution.
