Seems to me that, yet again, a service provider complies with court rulings requesting that illegal content should be taken down.
- hu3 6y agoPlease don't assume anyone on HN haven't read the linked article. It lowers the qualitty of discussions and is against guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Given I've quoted the article before on this thread, I can only assume you're acting in bad faith when insinuating I haven't read the article. With that said, as the article states, Facebook temporarily complied only after the judge increased the sentence with a threat of imprisioning staff. Facebook is paying lawyers out their own pockets to appeal as per article: > "Given the threat of criminal liability to a local employee, at this point we see no other alternative than complying with the decision by blocking the accounts globally, while we appeal to the Supreme Court," it said.
