In a first-of-its-kind ruling, a Spanish court has labeled VPN services as "technological intermediaries," ordering them to actively block IP addresses that host illegal LaLiga matches. The "dynamic" injunction compels NordVPN and ProtonVPN to intervene, similar to local ISPs. But with both companies operating outside EU jurisdiction with privacy-centric business models, it remains unclear if and how the order will actually be enforced.

No te preocupes, dentro de 5-6 años la justicia europea anulará esto y tendremos que pagar indemnizaciones con el dinero de todos con 0 consecuencias para estos impresentables. Luego cuando se critica a los jueces se indignan que se ataca su independencia, unos inútiles funcionales es lo que son los jueces de este país.
