So, what would happen if...

...the USA government decided to ban Internet gambling? Turns out you could get Window Vista for cheap!

This article explains it in detail, but basically, the USA has been brought to task by ANTIGUA for not playing fair by the WTO. The USA has basically ignored the WTO ruling that banning internationally-based Internet gambling companies while allowing US based companies to operate is a violation of WTO rules. Antigua now has the legal right to retaliate and one of the options open to it is to ignore all US copyright and patents. Hello cheap software, Hollywood DVDs, equipment, you name it!

USA suddenly complying with WTO when the multi-nationals find out in 5... 4... 3...
