Court Ruling

Zitat Zitat
The acts of which complaint is made have in my view been perpetrated not in Hong Kong but here in the EEA, and without Sony's consent. Moreover, it would make no sense if intellectual property rights in the EEA could be avoided merely by setting up a website outside the EEA crafted to sell within it. Were the acts of which complaint is made to have been committed physically within the EEA they would unarguably have been infringing acts. I cannot see how the electronic intermediary of a website which focussed at least in part on the EEA would make them any less so. In my judgment, Sony are entitled to relief in this action and in due course I shall hear Mr Speck on the form of order to be made and in addition, on the question of costs.
This is complete Nonsense. Die Tatsache das die Website automatisch die Währung und Sprache des Landes des Besuchers an nimmt, ändert nichts daran das Britische Gericht FUCK ALL über Firmen in Hong Kong zu entscheiden haben. Oh wow, tausend andere Seiten für verschiedenes machen das selbe, was solln wir tun Herr Richter? Shut down the Internet?

This action has some history about it. Sony have sued Pacific both here and in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong action was commenced a few days before the present action and, so I was told, is ongoing.
Oh wow, ya. Kein Wunder das niemand für Lik-Sang in Englang vor Gericht erschien, SIE HABEN SCHON GENUG IN HONG KONG ZU TUN. Lik-Sang wäre so oder so Geschichte gewesen entweder durch absurde England Entscheide oder durch in die länge gezogene Litegation von Sony in Hong Kong bis Lik-Sang pleite ist.

Someone tell that to the Euro SDF. Lächerlich.
