Abstract

V originále

This paper deals with the issues of liability of the hosting ISPs under Czech law with focus on copyright infringement. It introduces the Czech transposition of the E-commerce Directive (EU Directive No. 2000/31) and discusses the theoretical questions of establishing and limiting the civil non-contractual liability of the hosting ISPs. Furthermore, the rather scarce case law dealing with these issues is presented and analysed. Finally, the paper offers a glimpse into the possible changes vis-à-vis the transposition of the Copyright on the Single Digital Market Directive (EU Directive No. 2019/790)
