Auch dieser Eintrag stützt die Auffassung, dass Eigentums– und Urheberrecht durch Streetview nicht verletzt werden.

Die hier versammelten Urteile deuten zumindest darauf hin, dass Streetview keinen Eingriff in Eigentums– oder Persönlichkeitsrechte darstellt.

La Quadrature du Net is an advocacy group that promotes the rights and freedoms of citizens on the Internet. More specifically, it advocates for the adaptation of French and European legislations to respect the founding principles of the Internet, most notably the free circulation of knowledge. In addition to its advocacy work, the group also aims to foster a better understanding of legislative processes among citizens. Through specific and pertinent information and tools, La Quadrature du Net hopes to encourage citizens’ participation in the public debate on rights and freedoms in the digital age. The name “La Quadrature du Net” comes by analogy between the unsolvable mathematical problem of “squaring the circle” and similarly impossible attempts to effectively control the flow of information in the digital age by the law and the technology without harming public freedoms, and damaging economic and social development.

The OECD fights bribery in international business to strengthen development, reduce poverty and bolster confidence in markets. The keystone to its efforts is the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention and the Convention’s 2009 Anti-Bribery Recommendation.

In its resolution 55/61 of 4 December 2000, the General Assembly recognized No Bribes that an effective international legal instrument against corruption, independent of the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (resolution 55/25, annex I) was desirable. As a result, it decided to establish an ad hoc committee for the negotiation of such an instrument in Vienna, which is where UNODC headquarters are located.

The OECD Anti-Bribery Convention establishes legally binding standards to criminalise bribery of foreign public officials in international business transactions and provides for a host of related measures that make this effective. It is the first and only international anti-corruption instrument focused on the ‘supply side’ of the bribery transaction.
