Hello participants of Mailing List.
I continue to tell you about fining or closing web sites due to legislation
(http://lists.webappsec.org/pipermail/websecurity_lists.webappsec.org/2012-June/008400.html).
Since 2008 I've wrote large series of articles about closing web sites due
to legislation. There were a lot of cases in Ukraine concerning multiple
laws, where our law enforcements closed (temporarily or permanently) web
sites. This information can be interesting for you, because similar laws can
exist in other countries.
After the first part of laws, here is the second part of laws. The list
(consists of 10 laws, 9 Ukrainian and one EU) is mostly made according to
chronology, when law enforcement was closing web sites due to these laws.
Here is summary of the next five laws, according to which law enforcements
closed web sites:
- Spreading of illegal content (the first case of closing web site was in
2010, the second and the most resonance case was in the beginning of 2012).
- Closing sites due to checkings of law enforcement, tax administration in
particular (when there are suspicions of evading taxes). The first cases of
closing web sites (online shops) were in 2012.
- Fining or closing web sites due to EU legislation. About this I've wrote
you separate article last month
(http://lists.webappsec.org/pipermail/websecurity_lists.webappsec.org/2012-May/008377.html).
- Spreading of malware (the first case of closing web site was in 2012).
This law was the first one, which I planned to write about already in 2008,
but because there was no case of legal actions, so I waited till 2012.
- Closing sites due to Euro 2012 (due to abusing copyright of UEFA). The
first case of closing web site was in 2011.
Analogically with earlier mentioned laws, in all these cases there is
relation to security. I'm making such parallel in all such cases since
2008 - if web site will be hacked and illegal content (concerned to
above-mentioned laws) will be published at web site, it will expose it to
fines and/or closing.
This is just summary, if you'll find interesting any of these cases then
tell me and I'll write about it in details.
Best wishes & regards,
