“People in the Netherlands will soon have access to The Pirate Bay, one of the world’s most censored file-sharing websites, as a court in The Hague ruled that Dutch ISPs need to stop blocking the site after the ban proved ineffective against piracy. The Court of The Hague released its verdict that two leading ISPs operating in the country – XS4All and Ziggo – no longer have to block access to file sharing website The Pirate Bay. The court’s verdict was based on the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which includes the ‘freedom to conduct a business’ and ‘right to property.’ Entrepreneurial freedom overrides property rights, the court ruled.”
