Ein belgisches Gericht hat kürzlich dem EuGH die Frage vorgelegt, ob nach EU-Recht in den Nationalstaaten eine Filterpflicht auf richterliche Anordnung zulässig ist.
“Do directives 2001/29 (information society-copyright directive) and 2004/48 (enforcement directive), read in conjunction with directives 95/46 (data protection), 2000/31 (e-commerce) and 2002/58 (e-privacy), and construed in the light of Article 8 and 10 of the European Convention on human rights and fundamental freedoms, permit a Member State to allow that a national judge may require an internet access provider to filter all in- and outbound electronic communication in order to identifiy files that contain copyrighted music?
This is one of the two questions that the Brussels Court of Appeal recently decided to put to the European Court of Justice for a preliminary ruling (the decision – in French – is here; at the ECJ, the new case is C-70/10, Scarlet Extended).”
