I wonder if this decision will have ramifications here ...... particularly where the pressure on ISPs is concerned to monitor their users traffic ...... http://edri.org/sabam_netlog_win

Today, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) ruled that a social network “cannot be obliged to install a general filtering system, covering all its users, in order to prevent the unlawful use of musical and audio-visual work”.
