Interesting.

Seems to me just the kind of thing which should get
Microsoft into more trouble.

Seems to me this court ruling speaks not only to
Microsoft's crude German erotica, but also to content
providers in general.

If I put up material which legally is actionable, for
whatever reason, and the injured party sues and wins
a court order to take that material down, can I then
claim that other objectionable material on my web
was originated by other people, therefore I am not
responsible for it?

Interesting.
