The WIK decision refers to a ruling by the German Federal Court (Bundesgerichtshof) in 2016 regarding the liability of online platforms for user-generated content. The court clarified that platforms can be held liable for copyright infringement if they have actual knowledge of infringing content and fail to act to remove it. This decision has significant implications for how online services manage user-generated content and their responsibilities in protecting intellectual property rights. It emphasizes the balance between facilitating user expression and respecting copyright laws.
