The National Court has confirmed its intention to finally overturn a measure aimed at banning the use of a messaging app in Spain. Judge Santiago Pedraz retreated and emphasized in a new document that this was an “excessive and disproportionate measure.”
The National Court judge’s decision came hours after he said he would temporarily suspend the blockade and requested a report from the National Police Information Commissioner General to clarify the impact of Spain’s Telegram ban. After the report, Pedrac concluded: “An infamous fact has been confirmed that the instructor cannot ignore, and that is possible impact of multiple users in case of possible suspension”
Another reason why the judge decided to permanently suspend the blocking of Telegram is that “the economic impact that the preventive suspension will have on companies or societies “They conduct most of their communication activities through this platform because they consider it a reliable and safe channel from unwanted interference.”
Pedrac also believes that blocking Telegram is impossible, given that it is easy for users to avoid it. “This measure may not be ideal, since users may use a VPN or proxy server to access Telegram,” he clarified.
The reason why Telegram was going to be blocked in Spain
The National Court’s intention to block Telegram It started on March 22 last year., after Mediaset España, Atresmedia, Movistar Plus and EGEDA, the rights management organization for audiovisual producers, reported that the messaging app violated copyright by allowing the distribution of its content. More precisely, audiovisual content that was distributed through various groups and channels.
Now the National Court leaves it in the hands of the European Commission check whether Telegram complies with the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the Digital Markets Act (DMA), clarifying that “they will definitely have to respond so that the point of contact in Europe, as in this case, asks for accurate information.” »
