Colleagues Good morning; while not dismissing the significance of this decision by the ECJ and the potential consequences (I have an interest as was on the UK team that negotiated adoption of this after the Madrid train bombings) we should also note that the scope is limited to providers of "electronic communication services" (see Article 1 of attached directive). I am no lawyer but understand the in general the implementation of this directive by Member States is confined to such as ISPs and mobile operators; thus limiting affect in relation to ICANN and RAA.

Well I'll have to wait until he gets back and warms up a bit and then I'll discuss it with him :)
We might need to wait until the case is heard in the Irish High Court:

Congrats to the courageous Swedish ISP for deleting all retained customer data in wake of EU court ruling! This immediate taking action is real *customer care* ("from our point of view it is more important to protect the privacy and integrity of our customers").
I share the wish of the CEO: "I strongly suggest that other ISPs and service providers would follow our example." Hope this becomes a best practice in Sweden and elsewhere over the next weeks! Michele, you are highly welcome after your legal counsel is back from the North Pole ;-)
Best, Wolf
