Bangladesh bans online gambling websites
Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) has asked all the internet gateway providers and Telecom department to run an internet safety solution programme to block online gambling websites. BTRC is believed to have received an instruction to effect the same from the country’s government.
The telecom regulator has sent the order to block the websites so that these websites will not be accessible in Bangladesh again.
“It might take few more hours to block all the sites completely as blocking any site is so technical,” said Md Emdadul Hoque, general secretary of Internet Service Provider Association of Bangladesh (ISPAB).
A top official of the BTRC said they have often found complaints from different sides about online gambling and that needs to block for the sake of safe internet.
