How France and Yahoo helped to spread Internet censorship
http://j.mp/iBqFmq (ars technica)
"When the US Supreme Court denied judicial review to the matter, the
case ended. But far more than the validity of a censorship law had
been upheld. The Yahoo/France saga "encapsulates the Internet's
transformation from a technology that resists territorial law to one
that facilitates its enforcement," Goldsmith and Wu conclude."
