This is the interactive gambling act legislation in Australia where i am from:

•      This Act imposes the following prohibitions:

       (a)     a prohibited interactive gambling service must not be provided to customers in Australia;

      (b)     unlicensed regulated interactive gambling services must not be provided to customers in Australia;

       (c)     an Australian‑based prohibited interactive gambling service must not be provided to customers in designated countries;

      (d)     prohibited interactive gambling services must not be advertised;

       (e)     unlicensed regulated interactive gambling services must not be advertised.

•      The ACMA may, on its own initiative, or in response to a complaint, investigate whether a person has contravened a provision of this Act that imposes any of those prohibitions.

•      A body or association that represents internet service providers may develop an industry code.

•      The ACMA has a reserve power to make an industry standard if there is no industry code or if an industry code is deficient.

•      The ACMA must notify prohibited internet gambling content to internet service providers so that the providers can deal with the content in accordance with procedures specified in an industry code or industry standard.




Now, Eddie streams from Australia... That's advertising directly or indirectly. It does not matter. As he is not allowed to use Stake from Australia, promoting it in any way. Not to mention the simple fact that interactive gambling services must not be provided to customers in designated countries.... VPN usage or not it does not matter in a court room as long as i can provide proof the funds have come from Australia and there was no mandatory verification process to prove otherwise, which there wasn't.

Become familiar with the laws in Australia before doubting my argument and case, as well as the structure in which stake operates its business from within Australia.

And i know my best mates on this thread are going to give back some negative feedback. But they are not looking at this from a legal stand point. Terms and conditions are irrelevant if a company is breaking legislation themselves.

Anyone else from Australia who has accessed stake please get in contact with me via PM.
