In the U.S. state of Florida passed a law, which is due to incorrect wording prohibits the sale and use of virtually all modern computers. The reason for such a ban was the desire to protect the residents of the state of the slot machines. However, due to inaccuracies in the determination of what should be considered as such, was banned any computer equipment, which "has the ability to connect to the Internet and start gambling." Because imagine a smartphone or computer devoid of such a possibility at the moment is difficult, it turns out that the law in Florida were almost all electronic gadgets. problem gambling by computer devices rose after Deputy Governor Jennifer Carroll (Jennifer Carroll) was implicated in the scandal, which involved counseling charity site, which was hidden under the guise of the online casinos. The result was a draft law that prohibited the activities of such organizations in the state, and in addition had to limit access to these services from its territory. Under the ban were "network or system devices" and Internet cafes, as local legislators broadened the definition of a slot machine. The result was the closure of more than 1,000 Interent cafe, which in turn led to complaints and lawsuits by their owners.
