The OpenBlog reports that the French Parliament have passed a Guilt Upon Accusation law. "While the vote was not expected until next week, the few members in the chamber at the end of the discussion on the Creation and Internet law were invited to proceed immediately to vote, contrary to custom." At 10:45pm only 16 MPs out of 557 remained to vote on it (less than 3%): 12 voted in favour, 4 against. This comes after recent news that the EU has rejected internet disconnection as a punishment: 481 in favour of rejecting that particular punishment, 25 against, and 21 abstentions.

Good analysis,
