Italian court blocks web blocking
"An Italian appeals court has overturned a preliminary ruling by an investigating magistrate that ordered ISPs to block access to the controversial Bittorrent site The Pirate Bay. The Appeal Court upheld the finding that The Pirate Bay breached copyright, but held that creating a specific obligation on innocent third parties (ISPs) was not justified." [PublicAffairsLynx]
