As someone in the online industry, we should ALL be very adamant about protecting Safe Harbor laws that keep webmasters safe against UGC.
I know we all want to rid the net of as much piracy as possible. But if you start knocking down Safe Harbor laws that protect us against UGC. Then we're all fucked (Even comments on blogs would be in danger of putting the webmaster in jail because a user could copy>paste copyrighted text into a comment field).
So, with that in mind. How exactly did the courts rule? Is there still Safe Harbor protection against UGC. Or did Germany just become one of the worst countries in the world to own a website?
