Yahoo! News kan man læse at det to år gamle græske forbud mod computerspil stadig håndhæves, på trods af den græske højesteret har erklæret loven for forfatningstridig. Loven blev i sin tid vedtaget i et desperat forsøg på at komme ulovlig gambling til livs, men var altså så bred at så godt som alle former for elektroniske spil blev ulovliggjort.

“They treat us like criminals,” said Aris Assimakopoulos, a 28-year old computer specialist who runs an internet cafe in downtown Athens. Policemen stormed Assimakopoulos’ enterprise twice in January, threw out all clients, confiscated 50 PCs and arrested an employee.

“Posing as clients, we ascertained that in 49 out of the 70 PCs installed, prohibited video games were being played such as ‘rally’, ‘football’ and ‘war games’,” said the policeman leading the raid in his written deposition.
