Spanish Court Declines to Fine NordVPN over LaLiga Piracy Blocking Order (torrentfreak.com)

Sue the courts for telecomms interruption and tampering from LaLiga.

Considering web addresses are easily changed, it was a futile suggestion to say block LaLiga streams. Good on Nordvpn. As a football fan, the owners of the leagues have too much power. Like in the UK people have gone to jail for piracy, which should never happen.

I'll repeat what I said the last time about laliga...

> Foot egg is so ingrained into the countrymen that nothing else matters.

> There wouldn't be so much of a forced monopoly if more people would stop watching games and stand up to laliga.

> Complaining on the internet every time laliga shuts down github etc isn't going to change anything, we can't solve your problems, the change has to come from within.

Props to the court for telling laliga to go away.

Refering to football as foot egg when it’s actually a ball as opposed to the hand egg in the US is weird to me.

OT: La Liga shouldn’t have this kind of power and it’s good to see the court take a stance

They call American football handegg, we should be able to do the opposite. :P

Too fucking right. It is beyond tiresome to fire up the laptop and wonder whether I'll need a VPN to access GitHub today

You mean other than Berlin, Malmö, Paris, London, Munich, and many others. Europe doesn't have so many huge companies but that's not a bad thing. We do have a lot of companies doing key work that may benefit society as a whole.
