Provides than an electronic product promotion sweepstakes kiosk may not be connected to the Internet. Provides that the amendatory Act does not permit a person to operate an Internet site allowing the playing of a game of chance or skill for money or other thing of value by means of the Internet or the making of a wager upon the result of any game, contest, political nomination, appointment, or election by means of the Internet in violation of specified provisions of the Criminal Code of 2012. Prohibits the operation of an electronic promotion sweepstakes kiosk where the sale of a product is a subterfuge for gambling.
