LOL, well not intentionally. Little creative thinking must go into his decisions to sign or veto legislation, apparently.
Florida Accidentally Banned All Computers, Smart Phones In The State Through Internet Cafe Ban: Lawsuit
When Florida lawmakers recently voted to ban all Internet cafes, they worded the bill so poorly that they effectively outlawed every computer in the state, according to a recent lawsuit.

The link in that paragraph, in turn, goes to a Florida House bill which bans electronic gambling devices. But I do not see where it actually bans Internet cafes.
Did the reporter get sloppy and make a mistake about the state wanting to ban Internet cafes as well as gambling?
The state obviously didn't mean to ban computers and whatnot, but the reporter implies they did intend to ban Internet cafes.

After a quick read, it appears to me that what it does is make any establishment liable if anyone that uses the devises ends up entering a game of chance except for Bingo they put in exceptions for that in the retirement state, go figure. That essentially does lead to the complete ban of internet cafés as the liability here would be enormous. I dont see how that bans ALL use though. It was mainly focused on the promotion and use of such devises as it pertains to gambling.LOL, well not intentionally.

I think it has something to do with devices that can connect to the internet. Just what I saw briefly last night. I guess in Fla. you can pull your nic card and keep on legally using your computer........maybe you could just disable it in the BIOS....
Oh boy...
Another Wry Catcher post, you know it's going to be painful...

It's a lawsuit filed by a guy who's company got shut down because they were offering gambling through a loophole. It's an accusation by a vested interest that is going to get shut down regardless.
Read the link.
And the lawsuit:In April Florida Governor Rick Scott approved a ban on slot machines and Internet cafes after a charity tied to Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll
And then there is this claim:The owner, Consuelo Zapata, is now suing the state after her legal team found that the ban was so hastily worded that it can be applied to any computer or device connected to the Internet, according to a copy of the complaint obtained by The Miami Herald.
That essentially claims ALL of them.Florida's 1,000 Internet cafes were shut down immediately,
I mean, really?The legislation also puts limits on sweepstakes and says arcades cannot award gift cards or cash to winners. It also says arcades are supposed to have coin-operated games that involve an element of skill, not casino-style games of chance.
