The watcher has been a bit quiet recently – caused by a combination of a business trip to Singapore and a holiday.
Despite the holiday period there has been a lot going on including:
- yesterday’s UK case on site blocking;
- the EU Commission’s CEO summit on broadband investment; and
- the ECJ decision on intermediary liability in L’Oreal v eBay.
I previously discussed the changes to the PhonepayPlus code of practice, and today Ofcom published changes to the PRS condition to give statutory backing to the new code which comes into effect from 1 September.
