EU Court Rules Against Anti-Piracy Filtering System

In its judgement the ECJ ruled that a system would be a “serious infringement” of Netlog’s freedom to conduct its business “since it would require Netlog to install a complicated, costly, permanent computer system at its own expense”.But it also said there was a risk of infringing rights to the protection of personal data, as a filtering system would require “the identification, systematic analysis and processing of information connected with the profiles created on the social network”.
