The Contribution Of Eu Law To The Regulation Of Online Speech, Luc Von Danwitz
The Contribution Of Eu Law To The Regulation Of Online Speech, Luc Von Danwitz
Michigan Technology Law Review
Internet regulation in the European Union (EU) is receiving significant attention and criticism in the United States. The European Court of Justice’s (ECJ) judgment in the case Glawischnig-Piesczek v. Facebook Ireland, in which the ECJ found a take-down order against Facebook for defamatory content with global effect permissible under EU law, was closely scrutinized in the United States.

(A mutual fund is essentially a fund (usually in corporate form), the participants' contributions to which are collectively invested in a portfolio of securities, each participation representing a pro rata interest …
