CJEU – Making available and managing an online platform for sharing copyright-protected works, such as «The Pirate Bay», may constitute an infringement of copyright. Even if the works in question are placed online by the users of the online sharing platform, the operators of that platform play an essential role in making those works available. (Judgement C-610/15)
