Danish Court Orders Local ISPs to Block 24 Illegal Gambling Websites

07.02.2018

A court has sided with the Danish Gambling Authority, Spillemyndigheden, in a legal case stemming from local Internet service providers’ previous refusal to block access to gambling websites operating illegally in Denmark. Last year, the gambling regulator urged ISPs to block access to a total of 24 websites operated by gambling firms that had not been issued licenses in Denmark. The sites offered online casino games and sports betting. There were also several of them that featured skin betting options. The regulator said back then that it was particularly concerned by the operations of that latter betting sites as these were known to be targeting minors among other groups of customers.
