ISP Immunity Reaffirmed
Filed in archive Legal by Marc on January 25, 2007

. ISP immunity is well-established. But this ruling is apparently the first in a civil suit where the content violates criminal laws, such as child pornography. The individual who posted the content has already been convicted.
Such immunity may transfer in a limited way to other passive Internet service providers, such as user-contributed web sites, torrent directory or search sites, and P2P networks, provided that the provider has no direct knowledge of, and does not actively contribute to or induce illegal activity, and that there is substantial non-illegal activity.
