Trying to cut levels of gambling in their country, the Greek government have banned all 'public' playing of electronic games.
"The whole matter could remain in the sphere of comedy if it didn't concern directly the employment of thousands of people," said the Greek Internet Café Union.
"In China they prohibit access to political sites, in some other countries prevent connection to sites of sexual content and in Greece it is illegal to use personal computers and games consoles for playing games," it continued.
The gaming community has accused the government of taking the country back to the 1970s when individuals were arrested for playing cards at home. |
