Landmark

Where was this mentioned as "landmark" other than digg? This is hardly new. ~ UBeR (talk) 11:29, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Quite a bit of the media coverage used language to this effect, partly because of statements from attorneys in the case. It may not sound all that new to those in the US, which already has some caselaw surrounding the issue, but in France it seems to have been closer to a case of first impression (to the extent that applying common law concepts to a civil law jurisdiction is useful). --Michael Snow (talk) 04:56, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
