Do they really believe that they have the right to tell someone in America to remove something from their own computer?
What about radio waves?
Do they claim that any communication that leaves one country and goes into theirs is now under their control?
This is a really, really bad precedent to be setting.
- gnud 7y agoThe court believes that EU doesn't have the right to tell it's members that they _can't_ do that. It does _not_ say that it makes any sense for a EU state to do this. As I understand the issue. I might have misunderstood.
- close04 7y ago> that they have the right to tell someone in America No, they believe that they have no right to tell Member States to not even ask as long as it's "within the framework of the relevant international law, and it is up to Member States to take that law into account." Titles for this particular topic were chosen to cause indignation and get clicks. Trying to get the right idea from just the title these days is begging for misunderstandings. On the other hand don't forget the DMCA. It's US's way of doing exactly what you are outraged about to other countries, as long as the company targeted also operates in the US. Or government mandated backdoors that also apply elsewhere.
- fock 7y agounfortunately even the article states the same. you need the official press release to understand what was decided.
