FWIW, Geenstijl (probably the largest/most known blog in the Netherlands) reported on this matter in 2010 already, here http://www.geenstijl.nl/mt/archieven/2010/06/rechter_in_zaak... (in Dutch).

There has been some uproar about this on (Dutch) internet sites, however I haven't seen anything about it in mainstream media.

On a related note, just today a small ISP that needed to block TPB has refused to do it and they are now sued by BREIN (http://tweakers.net/nieuws/81929/brein-daagt-zeelandnet-om-t...). The trail will start in June and is expected to last several months. I just hope this time maybe more uproar will ensue if the same judge is doing the case again.

That will be interesting. Shame it takes so long and it will be 'komkommertijd' (summer) so although media will write about it, they already know that not many will read. On the other hand; it's a good time to get ANYTHING in any press starting june, so why not this?

Very curious to see if it's Hensen again. I would think it is.

After the summer we'll be having elections: this case is proof that NOW is the time to push the Pirate Partij.

We're the Netherlands, it's our job to be forward thinking, an example to our friends a few kilometers to the East (the Germans, for those not well versed in European geography). As it now stands they're past the first corner, but there's still time to catch up and overtake..
