Hey I just see two people trying to circumvent the law for their own personal gain.
I wouldn't brag about being incapable of perceiving nuance.

You don't see the difference between taking someone's money without permission and the conscience decision of two or more adult human beings to risk money on a game of chance/skill?

Laws are not their for you determine what's OK to break today because you don't agree with it.

So, all those who circumvented apartheid laws were criminals of Zuma's ilk? That explains a lot about this country.

Some people did it for love not Greed so can't blame them. But what are the laws of a illegitimate government but illegitimate laws.

Unjust laws are unjust regardless of who creates them.

Breaking unjust laws is not immoral, breaking just ones is.

The point is that it is illegal to play online poker in SA (for money).

Find another way or play another game.

Or don't worry too much about something the government is unlikely to notice anyway.

Lol, someone else's gambling effects you not at all. Like I said mind your own business.

Its a gateway to bigger laws being broken, JZ prob started with a R10 here and there look at us now, its a slippery slope.

Here is the problem....the bank will ask you for details of any funds coming into your bank account from a foreign source.

Well, for one thing they're going to have those details for any electronic transaction and for another they're only bound to report transactions over x amount.

Put it this way: once it becomes a real problem it'll probably be worth finding a work around.
