Site hosters can be held liable. Search engines are required to remove links to such sites. I fail to see how a domain registrar having to do the same is worse

I don't like the rulings much, but at least it is consistent.
- pornel 8y agoHosters host the offending content on their equipment. Search engines at least have specific knowledge of the content they direct to, and might have a (partial) copy. But registrars don't have any of this. They provide a service that is completely independent from any content being served, and the offending content never touches their infrastructure.
