"If that principle is swept aside," writes Sucherman, "and sites like Blogger, YouTube and indeed every social network and any community bulletin board, are held responsible for vetting every single piece of content that is uploaded to them--every piece of text, every photo, every file, every video -- then the Web as we know it will cease to exist, and many of the economic, social, political and technological benefits it brings could disappear."

To be clear, the effects of this ruling are restricted to Italy. Italy is cutting off it's own (Roman) nose.

Perhaps the idiot socialists at Google will realize that this is coming to a country near you unless we return to sanity.
