  • If you read more of the ruling, the ruling allows EU nations to impose requirements on ISPs. So the storage duration would be up to national law. (Which of course one may call into question bring before court on whether they are too long.)


    The question of whether you are liable as a provider of open access is an independent question. Yes, it becomes more relevant if you as a provider can’t bet on anonymity anymore. But it’s independent.

    Looking at DE Wikipedia, looks like previous EU court rulings were dismissing being held accountable, but there’s still one open. German law freed it in 2018. No mention of EU specifically in this article, so maybe it’s national concern - at least until the EU court makes a ruling.

    Their description reads

    I made a moving digital card of Blue Archive Mika using two flexible OLED displays.

    As a bonus, I made it possible to switch between the ones I made in the past. Prototype

    One commenter says you can buy these kinds of displays on Amazon. Another responds AliExpress. Another reply says

    650 USD for just one display. Did I read that right?

    So they’re not exactly inexpensive. Which is, of course, not unexpected, given it’s a new kind of product, relatively recent tech.



  • From the article-linked ruling press release - what it means in practice, what this was about:

    In order to protect works covered by copyright or related rights against offences committed on the internet, a French decree introduced two personal data processing operations. The first operation consists of the collection, by rightholder organisations, of IP addresses which appear to have been used on peer-to-peer websites to commit such offences and the referral of those IP addresses to the Haute Autorité pour la diffusion des œuvres et la protection des droits sur internet (High Authority for the dissemination of works and the protection of rights on the Internet) (Hadopi) 1. The second operation, carried out by the internet access providers at Hadopi’s request, consists, inter alia, of matching the IP address with the civil identity data of its holder. Those data processing operations enable Hadopi to initiate a procedure against the persons identified, combining educational and punitive measures, which may lead to a referral to the public prosecution service in the most serious cases.

    I find the ruling press release is much more understandable (and much more informative) than the OP-linked article.
