(Santiago de Chile).- In Chile, the Undersecretary for Telecommunications (Subtel) is joining hands with internet providers. They agree to obey a Supreme Court ruling. The aim is to shut down unauthorized online gambling sites.
Alfie Ulloa, President of a telecom coalition, confirmed this. He represents big names like Entel and Movistar.
According to Ulloa, companies are ready to block the sites. “We’re talking to Subtel and the government,” he said. “We don’t debate court rulings; we follow them.” The action will start next week.
Ulloa explained the technical details. Each company can block specific web addresses. “We need an official list of what to block,” he noted.
As for the timeline, Claudio Araya had something to say. “We’re waiting for a list from the Casino Regulatory Authority,” he mentioned. Once they get it, the companies will take quick action.
Background
This move signals a stricter regulatory environment for online gambling in Chile.
It aligns with global trends where governments are taking action against unauthorized digital betting platforms.
The cooperation between Subtel and telecom companies is noteworthy. Typically, these sectors operate independently, but here they are working in tandem.
This unity might set a precedent for future policy implementations.
Chilean citizens may have mixed reactions to this development. For some, the crackdown on illegal sites will be a welcome step to ensure safer online spaces.
However, others might view it as governmental overreach into personal freedoms.
In any case, this policy will likely shape the way online activities are governed in Chile going forward.
