> Please be informed that we have accomplished a success regarding network blocking in the new gambling law. The Commission of Legal Affairs of the National Council (Rechts-Kommisssion Nationalrat) kicks Network Blocking out of the Draft for the new Gambling Law. The strong collaboration between ISOC-CH und Digitale Gesellschaft has significantly contributed to the success. Our latest proposal, that we worked out in a coalition with DigiGes, Swico, ASUT, Economiesuisse and Google, appears to have passed; (the latter organizations have joined us just recently).
