> Hamburg Germany court (310 O 99/21) has recently sent a notice to Quad9 (a standard recursive DNS resolver) demanding to stop resolving certain domains for all residents in Germany on request from Sony Music GmbH. According to Sony, those domains in question are infringing on properties that they claim are covered by their copyrights.
This would be like a German court ordering Yellowbook to stop listing the phone number for a DVD store because they were known to sell bootleg copies of Sony movies. What a joke.
- oneplane 5y agoSame as ordering the post office to stop processing mail because someone sent a copy of a book in the mail...
- zamadatix 5y agoGP's comparison seems considerably more accurate. Even if your position is that the only way the Post Office could comply with filtering the mail for the address that's still not the same as an order to stop processing mail. Not to mention "someone sent a" makes it sounds like a single instance which is certainly not what http://uu.canna.to/ http://uu.canna.to/ regardless if you agree or disagree with pirating content.
- oneplane 5y agoThe comparison is not the mail or the processing, it's the fact that it's a transporting service and nothing more, just like DNS.
