The situation for Google in France gets a little worse. An appellate court in this decision rules against Google for selling keywords. One EEC colleague speculates that Google may have a hard time receiving any joy from the European Court of Justice and that its hopes will rest on the French Supreme Court. The translated decision is a little unclear to me as to whether the Court believes that Google should have known that the keywords were infringing or whether Google took too long to remove the names after it was placed on actual notice.
