Wants site to somehow inspect every single uploaded file to make sure that it's not copyrighted.
There's some interesting news out of Germany today whereby the District court of Dusseldorf has recently ordered the popular web hosting site Rapidshare to immediately begin blocking the uploading of copyrighted material to the site.
The decision isn't final for if it decides to appeal the decision, which it obviously will, it will be several years before it reaches the Federal Court and a final conclusion on the site's fate is made.
