Talking about groklaw.net?? Not on a daily basis... Got better things to do ;o) > Btw, what's the meaning of these words in the rest of the world, > thinking of legal cases like w2p.odem.org > (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/10/08/german_web_freedom_case/) Not sure what you are referring to here. AFAIK, Freedom of Speech in Germany have had the "nazi restriction" in the legal system since "Zero Hour", making references to (neo)nazism in most forms a crime. So, IMHO, this is a 'stupid law' (as I think it only fuel the fire) but it exists, is fairly explicit and have had political agenda for a long time. AFAIK, there are similar laws in France. > Nutzwerk vs. FFII (http://wiki.ffii.org/NutzwerkDns050729En)? Hard to get an idea of what this is all about, and can't really make a comment. FFII says that they are "harassed" by Nutzwerk, and won 2 litigations, and a 3rd in progress. And that Nutzwerk tries to exploit the above law, to shut FFII down. But I may have misinterpreted the situation. Not sure what "lack of common sense" or similar you are referring to.
