Hard to say on that. The Tunis conference last year just avoided a head on collision with fairly strong threats to pull the plug on some US net interests in other countries and this was getting fairly imminent.

There are a lot of countries on the list now wanting complete control over their own TLD's and the EU has started again with the pressuring and they won't be letting it last much longer.

Bottom line... the EU is no better than the US on this - they will end up probably leading the list of countries forward on their own TLD management, but prob go further with more net laws covering EU counties after they have "settled in" to managing their own shit.

There are other issues which may end up more positive - eg net gaming etc, tho too early to even begin to predict. In some countries it is doubtful the adult industry will be affected much - they already have fairly reasonable laws covering eg obscenity and not much need for extensions of these laws.

Who knows... but smell on the US side it may get worse yet before there is a chance of more positive stuff (tho this appears to be mainly the current US admin fetish and may change). But can see the US losing out on stuff like gaming now and a collision course with the WTO re this area - other countries are expanding their gaming operations.

Well the ban on poker is stupid as well. Why are we (The US) lowering everything to the lowest common denominator. They want to legislate change because 1% of gamblers loose their homes. What about the 99% of responsible gamblers. I guess personal responsibility doesn't mean shit.

If an award of $11 Million just came down then you better believe that there will be 1,000 law suits in 100 days. The problems is that the damage was probably a few hundred bucks but the jury was favorable to the plaintiff.

I tried to tell board owners this before and they laughed at me.

I too pointed this out in a recent conversation and was called an idiot.
I worked for a guy (bidbay.com) who put so much pressure on auctionwatch.com in the court system, that they banned ever mentioning the site bidbay.com again on their message boards.
