Antigua could flout copyright laws

[admin]

The island of Antigua may decide to disregard US copyright laws and become a haven for illegal downloads after a crack down by the US on internet gambling based in the Caribbean country.

-- snip --

It is estimated that Antigua's gambling-based economy has been reduced by 85 per cent since the US took action.

I like this part in the Gary D link

The EU has stressed at every stage in the four-year dispute that it would act in support of its interests - a reference to the British-based companies that lost millions because of the U.S. restrictions. Officials in Brussels said, however, they had yet to notify Washington whether they would submit a compensation claim

.

I hope the EU and everybody else stands up to Uncle Sam. Enuff is enuff with dictating to other countries what they can and can not do because of trading with the US. The thing here is witih online gambling in Antigua. Hmm why don't Uncle close down all the casinos in the US where people are easily losing billions too.

I leave close to Philly and other areas where I can get to mucho many slot machines and Atlantic City casinos. I guess that is where Uncle wants me to go.

I with ya EU and Antigua - Tell Uncle Sam enuff is enuff
