Basically 4 Googles exec are charge for NOT removing the video from Google video fast enough on their servers that someone upload it.

This is not a good precedent. I have no idea what the prosecutors are thinking when they push for this. Do they really want internet providers to really scan and control what goes online?

 

[SpecialKO]

Yes. They do.

Which just means that next time something like this happens, Google will refuse to cooperate with police in identifying the perps.

Well China has no internet freedom and a communist country. I didn't know that Italy was communist also.

 

[Dusty668]

No, it just wants to be socialist withougt folks hissing Moussilini behind it's back any more.

What?

 

[Silver Jelly]

Italy just wants to be a nucear threat without Il Duce dancing around.

Makes as much sense as that other sentence...

I too think of the inventor of the extreme right wing philosophy of fascism when anyone mentions communism...

Well the Mafia did start out as communities protecting themselves from the government, that's sorta communist...

Nah... Google probably just forgot to pay him protection money or something.
