Is U.S. Geo-Location Effective?


Some interesting press today...

It appears that geo-location isn't as fool proof as everyone wished, at least from this article and sub links. It's becoming clearer to me now why more and more OC's are requesting notarized documents and in the future where even a video displaying a player is logged in the site/account and also capturing the players pic during the video process.

I was a against the above before but it appears extra steps still need to be taken at least within the U.S. market for full legalization. For the record you can already upload ID video's, if requested to your PlayerVerify.com account. 

As the FBI confirmed, "Individuals may use a wide variety of mechanisms to conceal their physical location, or give the appearance of operating in a different jurisdiction …" This statement is easily proven using scientifically verifiable and undetectable methods to demonstrate how a person located in Pakistan can play poker on a system located inside New Jersey. We know because we have done it.

Good read, click here!
