It is a pity that there is no mention in that article about what they discussed. SimonsQQ posted They need to hit the cheaters hard and fast. If the players don't feel safe, traffic will go down. This was a horrible year for online poker I really hope they do. This only hurts the game we love.

To do this they need to make some sort of legislation global, so they can stop those Russian rings too. At least, penalize the rooms, for lacking protection against this abuse.

Might be a good idea to warn the rooms for these "jobs". If they check them, maybe thet could improve their defenses against bots.
