    14 July 2010 an article was published who received no proper attention so far – for the first time the Israeli police ordered Internet Service providers to block access to Web sites. The news was posted on ‘Haaretz' web sites in Hebrew and English as well as on ‘Globes‘, but without significant reference, if any, at other news sites.

    Police ordered all ISPs to block access in a number of gambling sites, most of them abroad, which are suspected to be owned by Israelis: http://hebrew.vcpoker.com, http://www.victorchandler.com, http://keshcard.com, http://www.stanjames.com and http://thespinroom.com.
