11 November 2004
The much anticipated final report of the World Trade Organization's dispute panel that handled Antigua and Barbuda's case against the United States was finally published yesterday. It has been public knowledge since March that the panel decided in favor of Antigua by ruling that certain U.S. policies regarding online gambling violate the terms of the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), but the release of the 287-page report had been delayed for many months because the parties sought to negotiate a compromise. The inevitable recommendation of the panel is that the U.S. brings itself in line with the GATS by removing its prohibitory policies on online gambling.»

Evaluating the DOJ's Response to Casino City
5 November 2004

The bulk of the long document attempts to discard the case on technical grounds while the free speech issue is addressed in only five pages. Assuming the government's technical arguments will fail, at the heart of case remains the question of whether or not Internet gambling is a legal activity in the U.S.»
