Norway’s DNS Blocks: Can It Stop Offshore Casinos?


Listen Later

In this episode, we break down Norway’s new DNS-blocking system and its impact on offshore online casinos. We look at why the measure was introduced in 2025, how regulators decide which sites to block, and what this means for players who try to access unlicensed platforms. We also explain the real weaknesses of DNS-blocking — from VPN workarounds to mirror sites and alternative payment methods — and why the system only stops a portion of offshore gambling activity.
