It won't let me make it clicky but here's the article.  The privacy laws in Italy are fucking insane.

That is the biggest bull shit I have ever heard of. I am pretty scared that soon the internet will not be free and unregulated. I liked the post office/ ransom note analogy. Bull Shit.

Hey Italy, STOP sending us you nuclear waste. Hey energy solutions, STOP taking Italy's nuclear waste and putting it in Toole, Utah.

Sorry that had nothing to do with the thread topic, but fuck Italy and energy solutions.

judges are right. the execs should have pulled the video and sent it to america's funniest home videos.

Pretty bizarre. I'll add Italy alongside China and Iran to my list of countries in which to never start an internet company.

so google is responsible for not taking down this video, but every news channel shows the video of the luger being killed over and over again. even after they knew he was dead?

I dont understand legal bullshit like this.

That's because you are lucky enough to live in a free country.
