That's good, but you're still at risk with a VPN. They log your ip and disclose it upon government's request.

I think it's the licensees that the governments will go after, not the gamblers.

That is usually not the case. The government will never go that far to track your activity online and the VPN's probably wouldn't provide the data as well. And By the time you gamble and withdraw , youd be long gone. You can also just use TOR .

Honestly I don't know who would browse bitcoin gambling sites in this day and age without a VPN. It costs so little, yet is so important when it comes to privacy.

Did you say this as those websites have chosen to restrict your access from you UK IP address or did the Gambling Commission communicate something to you directly?

Didn't expect Nitrogen sports to be affected by this. Seems the threat must be real serious. I hope the other countries don't follow the same path.

I was contacted by them.
They sent me a 'Cease and Desist' order setting out in no uncertain terms,  that I was open to being prosecuted  if the site wasn't taken down swiftly.
And the sites above have chosen to block  my IP address at the request of the Gambling Commission.

They all blocked your IP address specificly?! Jeezus thats crazy. Are you on a static IP? I know that you could work around it with a VPN but that seems quite a message.

You won't have any problem with a vpn of other country that don't save logs.

Whats the reason for you of not getting yourself a VPN? you can get a very cheap VPN just to bypass this IP block easily and you will still be able to play at your favourite website. Also you can always use a public wifi to access your wallet so that the UK gambling commission could not track your activity

I could do that indeed but why on earth am I being made to feel like a criminal for wanting to bet with bitcoin??
That is the issue.
And how long before the American Gambling Commissions  go down the same route?
Surely it won't just stop at us in Britain.

I'm not happy about this, regulatory rules are annoying as fuck to be honest. Because of this Nitrogen Sports have now stopped accepting bets from the UK. They were one of my favourite BTC accepting bookies.
Does anybody know if I use Tor or a VPN would I still be able to bet there?

I don't see why there are so many bull shit rules implemented on us, what reason do the UK have for doing this?

what reason do the UK have for doing this?

How much do you think the UK Government rake in every year from the likes of Hills, Corals, Ladbrokes, Bet365, Paddy Power etc?
And how much will they rake in from bitcoin sportbooks  present and future?
I think that may answer your question.
