it?

Are there similar cases where UK citizens putting content on US servers
have had their day in a UK court? Commons and wikis in general become a
lot harder if we have to have policy that upholds all laws of all countries
that our contributors come from. Creative Commons solves many issues, but
not all.
Do we have a disclaimer on the upload form which covers 'public domain' ?
A case that could have tested this didnt go to court.

The Darwin images was another case.
EU privacy laws have been applied to facebook; moral rights are also
recognised by WMF projects even tho they dont exist in the US.
Sorry I dont have an answer.
