It was my understanding that simply publishing information relating to online gambling is protected under the constituion?

Google "pipe bomb making" and am i sure you will find hundereds of usefull websites.

From BW
http://www.bonuswhores.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=24667
[quote="jek187"][quote="jhess888"]I was reading on 2 + 2 that people from certain states are banned from this site. Is this true and if so which states and why are they banned?

[/ QUOTE ]

We aren't banning anybody. We are checking IPs of people who view the site, and if we detect they're from a state where online poker is illegal, we ask them if our IP checking is accurate.

There have been casino affiliates arrested in FL. I also heard of an affiliate in WA that got a cease and desist letter from some DA. I don't think it's unreasonable for BW to take some precaution.

I've been getting that for over a year now, but you are right its getting to the extreme now, and no not just because of this gambling bill (there were other unbelievable bills that were also passed that week).
