Let’s say I try to access a legitimate gambling site based in the United States. As soon as I enter the website, I’m automatically blocked due to my UK location, since their services aren’t legally available to users outside their jurisdiction. This is a standard compliance measure.
Cura?ao-based operators, on the other hand, routinely bypass these restrictions. You can access their sites without any jurisdictional checks or warnings. There’s no indication that their services are not legally permitted in the UK.
Most consumers have no way of knowing whether a gambling operator is UK-regulated or not. That’s why it’s the operator’s legal and ethical responsibility to implement proper geoblocking from the outset not to deceive users into believing the platform is legitimate or UK-licensed.
