Davis,

 

Blocking of the sites is not the only thing the petition has asked for.It
has also for CCK and KECOBO to create for legal framework against illegal
exploitation of copyright..

Will be an interesting case to keep the eye on.

 

What is not in doubt is that the final ruling will set a very serious
precedent on how to deal with copyright issues when it comes to the Online
World.

Does Kenya have necessary laws, and do the copyright holders have a list of
infringing sites?

Interesting case, though I wonder how ISPs allow people to allow content
illegally. Any one with some insight?
