I can't believe you havn't picked this story up. It's very major. Uncle Sam sends out subpoenas To Gambling Portals and radio advertisers. They want all records on ad sales dating back to 1997. The part you show focus on is they are trying to even get webmasters who are affiliates od casinos. They are going to try to say that if the webmaster gets a percentage(partenership) of the players losses, then they are acutally part owner of that casino company. I don't know if I explaned that right. But this means, If one is an affiliate....technically one is part owner of a casino. One would be receiving revenues from the casino operations based on profit and loss.

That means adult sites will be next. webmasters who use partnership programs will technically part owner of a porn company. Better check what State your servers or host are in because some states will start to prosecute for selling porn in there state.

This might be bigger than you think. I worked in the online gaming industry for 4 years in the Caribbean. adult and gambling have the same issues happen to them, but at different times.
