No damages, penalty, or forfeiture, civil or criminal, may be found against the interactive computer service for an act done in compliance with the notice. This subsection does not affect the right of a person to secure an appropriate determination that the service, facility, or equipment must not be discontinued or refused, or must be restored.

(1) give reasonable notice to the subscribers of its service; and
(2) use all technological means possible to block access to the site or area through its service.

IF passes, internet gamblers will be felons upon arrest. Also, if passes as is, could have gambling sites blocked by IP's. Atleast we get a warning.

Indiana is only one of 2 states I believe who categorize online gambling as a misdemeanor, so they may take it a step further also so to fill their pockets more.

But, if casino city wins its suit against the US Justice Department will that case law not hold precedence over any state law?

"The complaint seeks a declaratory judgment that advertising online casinos and sportsbooks is constitutionally protected commercial free speech under the First Amendment of the United States." http://online.casinocity.com/firstamendment/

Surely a State can't introduce a law that violates the First amendment (I thought only the Feds could do that as for example the PATRIOT act).
