Kentucky Judge Upholds State's Gambling-Domain Grab

Posted by timothy on from the always-think-forfeiture dept.

JohnHegarty writes "A Kentucky judge has upheld that state's seizure of some of the world's most popular online casino domain names, ruling they constitute a 'gambling device' that is subject to Kentucky's anti-gambling laws." Wasn't it surreal enough on the first round?

    So is it time to update the DNS servers to ignore Kentucky?

      Hey! HEY! Speaking as a Kentuckian there are many things we are proud of. Especially our invention of the toothbrush which if it had happened anywhere else would've been called teethbrush.

      I'll be here all week enjoy the squirrel stew and bourbon.

    OK:
    The judge runs over your puppy and laughs while pissing out the window on your head.
