The European Parliament delegation led by Catherine Trautmann recently
gave up on protecting EU citizens against arbitrary restrictions of
their Internet access. In order to reach an agreement and avoid a clash
with Member States, the Parliament retracted its support to the core
element of notorious "amendment 138" : prior judicial decision before
restrictions to access and usage of the Internet. This protection of
citizens' fundamental rights against arbitrary restrictions of their
Internet access came a long way. Here is a little restrospective on the
"stations of the cross" of amendement 138.

(See also the rewording of amendment 138, preserving its core principles
while adressing legal uncertainty, that was transmitted to MEPs last
week: http://www.laquadrature.net/en/indisputable-wording-of-amendment-138)
