Exceprts:
Quote:THE US Department of Justice has ordered the world’s biggest investment banks, accountants and law firms to hand over all e-mails, telephone records and papers connected with internet gaming firms as part of an investigation into illegal online gambling in America.HSBC, Dresdner Kleinwort, Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank are known to be among the banks that have been issued with subpoenas — official requests for information — as part of a worldwide hunt to build a case against those who benefited from illegal online gambling.

Seriously? That’s so sad that they’re doing that. Land of the free no more

I think it’s a little late for that. I remember in the 90s everyone looked up to the great USA. A decade later and it’s the opposite.
Of course UK banks will comply.
