The first arguments and opinions on the impact of the federal ban on online gambling in Brazil are now emerging. The ban has not yet taken effect. Football organisations say the sport will be the first to feel the consequences.
Government position
President Lula's government and the Workers' Party remain firm, according to the reports: the ban is the only way out of a failed betting regulatory regime, whatever the consequences. The sources give no further details on the ban itself, its timing or its mechanics.
The two versions of the material were published by the same outlet, so the details cannot be independently confirmed.
