    Sounds like neither company will be complying, as Spain used a local kangaroo court where the proceedings are carried out without the awareness or presence of the defendants, likely disqualifying it for EU Digital Services Regulation. This doesn’t hurt VPN providers, this just makes a clown show of the Spanish legal system.

      It hurts internally and externally, if I may add. How would other countries trust a given country if this country doesn’t even respect right for defense?

    The measures were taken ‘inaudita parte’, meaning that the defendants weren’t called to participate in a hearing.

    Um, excuse me?

    As much as I couldn’t give less of a monkeys about fOOtBAll, this is a massive over-step from governments (yet again). The moment countries get to order VPNs what to do, they become pointless.

    Wouldn’t watch their fascist soccer matches even if they paid me.
