Caving in to Sony’s lawyers again. DNS resolution is not copyright infringement and someone needs to put Sony/BMG in their place and make them go after those who are actually infringing instead of those who are providing internet backbone services.
This isn't a case of caving to the lawyers. Those lawyers got a JUDGE to grant an INJUCTION. Once that happens, you're not caving to lawyers - you're going to follow the letter of that injunction while you appeal it, or throw up your hands and follow it forever.
Also FTA: "We have retained counsel, and we are in the process of filing an objection to the injunction, though we are required to comply with it."
So they're not throwing their hands up...

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it." ― Upton Sinclair
The prevailing filter bubble of the bourgeoisie and the rich is intent on remaining secure at all costs, assassinations included. Just look around the world where journalists are murdered most and then where they are deplatformed.
Sorry, I totally agree with you but people have learned that anyone using words like bourgeoisie shouldn't be listened to.

I genuinely don’t understand what kind of reaction you think “everyone knows”. That some people will be inexplicably scared when the the name of Karl Marx is invoked?
- "middle- and upper-classes taken together"
- "people earning over $80k unless they're filing jointly or have 3+ kids"
- "let all the shallow people against the poor reveal their true colors if they really want to jump to conclusions"
Don't see anywhere I agued it wasn't, but I was responding to your comment which sounded like Quad9 was caving to Sony's lawyers, as opposed to the more specific accusations of judicial bribery in this follow-up post.
Is it common for German judges to be bought and/or specific judgements to be paid for in Germany?
None of the other options you listed come as close to describing what was stated as bribery does.
We'll see what happens once the dust settles.
It appears that they are technically unable to comply with the injunction.
