> However, one explicit requirement is that the provider may not change any of the content transmitted to claim immunity. I am very interested in seeing whether the decryption/encryption of the data will prevent him from claiming immunity. I am not familiar with the Austrian law, but my guess would be it acknowledges changing content as part of a technical protocol as different from changing the content's meaning. For example, if a service provider runs a site to convert .tiff into .jpg, and someone uploads an illegal picture, I suspect that the conversion would not be considered changing content. This suspision comes from the fact that the type of not content changing that would otherwise be required exludes a great number of the services that seem like would be protected under this law. Again, I am not a lawyer, nor am I fammilar with any Austrian law.
