An dieser Stelle ein kurzes und knappes, für viele Firmen aber sehr relevantes Urteil: Eine Rufnummernportierung ist auch im Wege der einstweiligen Verfügung durchsetzbar. Die Deutsche Telekom muss danach bestimmte Rufnummern einer Kanzlei zur Übernahme freigeben.
Der nun enbrandte Streit ist nicht sonderlich neu, tatsächlich hatte das Amtsgericht Berlin Mitte bereits im März 2007 festgestellt, dass eine Speicherung von IP-Adressen der Besucher nur dann zulässig ist, wenn diese ausdrücklich ihr Einverständnis dazu geben. Wie das logistisch zu bewerkstelligen sein soll, ließen die Richter offen. Da eigentlich daraufhin nichts passierte, knöpften sich Datenschützer wenige Monate später erneut Website-Betreiber vor. Das Unabhängige Landeszentrum für Datenschutz Schleswig-Holstein (ULD) ließ im Juli vergangenen Jahres in Person von Dr. Thilo Weichert verlauten:
Wir waren verblüfft und schockiert, wie weit Google Analytics auch in Schleswig-Holstein verbreitet ist. Renommierte Medien- und Internetunternehmen gehören zu deren Nutzern ebenso wie viele Anbieter aus der Tourismus- und der Dienstleistungsbranche; ja politische Parteien, öffentliche Stellen des Landes und Hochschulen setzen den kostenlosen, aber datenschutzwidrigen Service ein.
Immerhin waren sie so “verblüfft und schockiert”, dass wiederum mehr als ein Jahr ins Land gehen musste, bis der Faden wieder aufgegriffen wurde. Und das war dann gestern.

Information set to “everyone” is publicly available information, may be accessed by everyone on the Internet (including people not logged into Facebook), is subject to indexing by third party search engines, may be associated with you outside of Facebook (such as when you visit other sites on the internet), and may be imported and exported by us and others without privacy limitations.

Facebook Privacy Policy circa December 2009:
Certain categories of information such as your name, profile photo, list of friends and pages you are a fan of, gender, geographic region, and networks you belong to are considered publicly available to everyone, including Facebook-enhanced applications, and therefore do not have privacy settings. You can, however, limit the ability of others to find this information through search using your search privacy settings.
Current Facebook Privacy Policy, as of April 2010:
When you connect with an application or website it will have access to General Information about you. The term General Information includes your and your friends’ names, profile pictures, gender, user IDs, connections, and any content shared using the Everyone privacy setting. ... The default privacy setting for certain types of information you post on Facebook is set to “everyone.” ... Because it takes two to connect, your privacy settings only control who can see the connection on your profile page. If you are uncomfortable with the connection being publicly available, you should consider removing (or not making) the connection.
