Articles - The CJEU validates article 17 of directive 2019/790 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market (DSM directive). The new liability regime for large online platforms is therefore valid. 

Articles - On 5 April 2022, the Grand Chamber of the Court of Justice of the European Union first confirmed that EU law precludes national legislative measures which provide, as a preventative measure, for the general and indiscriminate retention of traffic and location data relating to electronic communications, for the purpose of combating serious crime.
