The appliance that consumes the most energy at home after heating: the water heater

by

If you believe that everything that influences your electrical invoice is air conditioning or heating, think about it again. There is an appliance that is making a mella much more silently and that, probably, you had not noticed. In situation. In recent months, the price of electricity in Spain He has experienced fluctuations important, with a significant increase in January 2025. The electricity rate reached 68.41 euros per MWhreaching a quota that was only remembered three years ago. This increase is not accidental, since it is mainly due to the increase in the price in the wholesale electricity market and the return of the VAT to 21%. In addition, the Finish of the Iberian Exception In August 2024 it has contributed to this increase. However, the solution is not only to use less heating or turning off lights, which also, but certain appliances are raising the price of the light invoice. The one you least expected. The water heater You need a lot of energy To warm up, redundancy, large amounts of water. Despite having transformed people’s daily lives and facilitated domestic tasks, their use has inevitably increased energy consumption in homes. In data. To make it easier to understand, an average consumption per person is around 800kwh per year, so in a house of four people and a 200 -liter deposit we would be talking about spending an annual total of 3,200kwh. All this, monetarily translated would be about € 600 a year only by the water heater. How can we save? To start, you have to look at the things we do wrong, such as adjusting the temperature to very high levels that raise the price, as at 60 ° C or more, when in reality a temperature between 50 ° C and 55 ° C is more than enough. Also, regular maintenance must be carried out to avoid the accumulation of tartar in resistances. This accumulation hinders heat transmission, which forces the system to consume more energy to heat the water. Another advice is to take advantage of the lowest demand schedules, improve the insulation of the tank and opt for alternative systems such as heat pumps or thermal panels. These options can generate important long -term savings. The alternatives. The latest technologies mentioned are going to analyze them more carefully. On the one hand, The thermal energy that uses the solar radiation to heat waterwhich makes it an option for homes with sufficient sun exposure, allowing to reduce the dependence of electric heaters. On the other hand, aerothermia, which takes advantage of The energy contained in heating aircooling and hot water, has become popular for its high energy efficiency. However, these options have a fairly high initial investment plan, but over time they are profitable and contribute to reduce carbon emissions. Knowing how and why we use energy at home is important to save money and take better advantage of our appliances. In fact, the latter has transformed and improved our daily lives, but it is also important to be more aware of how we consume energy to take care of both our pocket and the environment.

Thus ended the experiment that Spain is copying

by

In LaLiga’s fight against illegal soccer broadcasts, there is not only websites of websites dedicated to this type of broadcasts, but also shared IPS blockades that are affecting thousands of legitimate companies. This same scenario was lived in Italy just a year ago, when its regulator, AGCom, implemented the “Piracy Shield”, a system that ended up demonstrating the risks of this type of blockades. Between bambalins. The Italian case started in the summer of 2023, with the approval of the aforementioned “Piracy Shield“, But the real problems began in February 2024, when the first mass blockages caused thousands of legitimate websites, including nothing less than Google Drivethey will be inaccessible. A situation that is now familiar to us: here is Github who is inaccessible. The IPS blocked then belonged mainly to Cloudflare, Zenlayer and Google (hence the of Drive), causing A domino effect similar to that now suffers from Spain. In figures. The current impact on Spain is being considerable: more than 50% of IPS that distribute LaLiga content without a license are housed in Cloudflare, according to the employer of Spanish professional football. “Those are the worst,” said his president Javier Tebas about Cloudflare a few months ago in an interview with Jordi Wild (minute 13:10). LaLiga, in fact, has just announced the blockade of two platforms, Dazcfutbolios and RBTV77, which added more than 400,000 unique users in Spain. LaLiga insists that she has made several requirements prior to Cloudflare before reaching the current situation. “We have made permanent requirements to Cloudflare before before any blockade without obtaining a chord answer,” Sources of LaLiga explain. The contrast: While in Italy the initiative started from a public regulator (AGCOM) … … in Spain it is being led by a private entity (LaLiga). This makes a notable difference in execution: in Italy there was a specific regulatory framework, while in Spain it acts Under the umbrella of a judicial judgment of 2022 which authorizes the “dynamic blockages.” However, LaLiga emphasizes judicial support for blockages of recent days. Turning point. The situation has reached such an extent that LaLiga has enabled an email mailbox (affectedcloudflare@laliga.es) so that affected companies can report damage. It is an implicit way of recognizing this great collateral impact, although the organization insists that the responsibility is cloudflare for “using legal companies as a digital shield.” That is, he considers that the decision to assign shared IPS to all types of services is their way of protecting those LaLiga pursues. Voltage focus. The conflict has intensified with a crossing of accusations between LaLiga and Cloudflare that has intensified. Technology accuses LaLiga of acting deliberately knowing that it would affect “millions of consumers.” The statement sent to Xataka by Cloudflare a few days ago: «Although LaLiga perfectly understood that blocking Shared IP addresses would affect the rights of millions of consumers to access hundreds of thousands of websites that do not violate the law, LaLiga continued with said blockade. This seems to reflect the erroneous belief that their commercial interests must prevail over the rights of millions of consumers to access an open internet ». And LaLiga’s replica, which denounces that Cloudflare “profit from illegal activities.” «Given the statements of Cloudflare to Xataka, LaLig legal as a digital shield to protect criminal organizations and mafias ». “LaLiga has repeatedly required Cloudflare to stop this complicit activity with criminal organizations, which threaten intellectual property and incur multiple criminal activities such as the violation of intellectual property, all kinds of scams and pornography, without a favorable response.” “Thus, LaLiga is not positioned against free access to the Internet, but requests measures and carries out controlled actions against companies or organizations that profit from illegal and criminal acts using legal companies as a digital shield.” In Xataka | Technology has redefined football.

What is cloudflare, how it works and why a fall or block makes half the Internet fail

by

Let’s explain What is cloudflare and how it works This shield and accelerator for web pages. It is one of those almost essential services for the correct functioning of the Internet, but that we are not aware until it fails or blocks and you can enter hundreds of websites. We will begin this article explaining in a simple way what is cloudflare, summarizing the operation of the Internet and the role that CDNs have like this service in it. Then, we will tell you why a fall or lock of the service makes half the Internet seem to fall. What is cloudflare and how it works Cloudflare is a CDN, a Content Delivery Network either Content distribution networkthat in Spanish is Content distribution network. It’s about a network of servers distributed throughout the world destined to help better distribute Internet content and make you can quickly and safely access the content of a website. To understand its operation you must first understand how the Internet works. A web page is housed on a server, and simplifying it a lot, when you enter it you connect your computer to that server, to access the contents of a website. The same happens when you want to enter any online service or web application, you have to connect to your server. The problem is that perhaps the server of my application is in a country far from the computer from which someone wants to connect. So, that distance makes the connection speed very slow, or that even from some countries cannot be entered. The same happens if the web or the service you are going to access had a single server. Then, having thousands of users entering that single server would make everything slower because I would have to work more and for more people. It is here where the CDNs and their networks of servers come into play. When a website, an online service or application resorts to them, is as if they had copies of the content and cache distributed all over the world to be able to connect in a faster and more efficient way. There will always be a server close to you, and traffic can be distributed by the hundreds of servers. Thus, if I connect from Spain to an American service, I will not join a giant user queue wanting to enter a single server that is also far away, something that would make the connection slow. Simply, I will connect to the nearest server of the CDN network that is using that service. Everything will go faster, and the traffic that accesses the service will be more distributed. Cloudflare is one of the most used CDNs of the world. There are many web pages that resort to this company, because in addition to a very wide network of servers, it also offers protection against various types of online attacks that could collapse access to the contents. This way, Cloudflare is an intermediary between a customer or user and the content of the website or the online service they want to access. It is a network that houses copies of a service so that you always have geographically close, technologically safe access, and less traffic collapsed. Why if Cloudflare Failure Middle Internet does it When you stop accessing this network of servers, you can access its content. This means that if your Internet operator blocks you access to Cloudflare or if this service has a failure, stop being able to enter most web pages. There will be no network that distributes traffic and access to these websites, and simply connect to one would be too slow or you would be too far. For practical purposes and simplifying it a lot, Not being able to access Cloudflare means not being able to access many servicesand that those who use it and are not fallen simply go extremely slow. This is so for The dependence of Cloudflare. Being one of the most popular CDNs in the world, many important and top -level services access it. And these services that use it, depend on their servers network to work properly. In this PDF You can see the services and websites used Cloudflare, such as X, Bluesky, Microsoft, Mozilla, Snapchat, Temu, Efe, Github, Wikimedia, Facua, CaixaBank and many more. All these services will stop working or work extremely slow if the Cloudflare network stops working. When a website or online service fails, it is sure that there is a problem with the infrastructure of the server network that provides you with access to it. So Errors like the 502 Bad Gateway indicating this problem. If the one who cannot access a website, app or service is due to this, all you can do is cloudflare or the CDN to use the error. When an operator blocks access to cloudflare Or some other concrete CDN, the problem is that your IP cannot access this network of servers, although it works correctly. In these cases solving it is easyand you just have to use one VPN to access from a different IP that does not have access.

The price of rice has raised so much that Japan has had to make an unprecedented decision: resort to its reservations

by

Few things reflect to what extent there is a crisis situation that the price of a basic product in the supermarket. In Japan, and in most Asia, Rice is a fundamental pillar of foodsupporting the life of much of the population. However, a combination of factors threatens the essential cereal. In Japan he has never been so expensive, and the government has made an unprecedented decision. Tons of rice. Given the increase in rice due to distribution problems, the Japanese government has announced that, As of March, it will release 210,000 tons from its emergency reserve To stabilize the market. It is, therefore, The first time this reserve is used with the purpose of reducing pricesinstead of doing so for emergencies such as bad harvests or natural disasters. The Minister of Agriculture, Taku Eto, emphasized that rice production has been enough to meet demand, but bottlenecks in the distribution have maintained high prices. In 2024, Production increased by 180,000 tons compared to the previous year. However, the amount collected by distributors fell into 210,000 tons, which suggests that Farmers and wholesalers retained stocks anticipating new price increases. According to researcher Masayuki Ogawa at UTSunomiya University, The mismatch is due to the entry of speculative buyers They have artificially maintained prices without the benefits reaching producers. Crisis factors. As we said at the beginning (And in past weeks), there are several. The price of a five kg package of Japanese rice has risen from 2,023 yen to 3,688 yen in a year. Causes? The 2023 record heat wave reduced agricultural yields and reserves, while consumption increased due to unprecedented tourism. Besides, The warnings of typhoons and earthquakes unleashed panic purchaseswhich led some retailers to limit sales. To this we must add what we commented before. The harvest has not been bad, but quite the opposite, but everything indicates that farmers and wholesalers retained stocks anticipating new price increases. Liberation strategy and expectations. To relieve market pressure, The Ministry will initially auction 150,000 tons of rice to agricultural and wholesale cooperatives, mostly composed of a grain of 2024, with a small part of 2023. Subsequently, another 60,000 tons will be releaseddepending on the impact of the first phase. The auction will take place in mid -March, which means that rice will begin to reach shops between the end of March and April. The main objective is clear: Improve distribution without intervening directly in the market price mechanism. In this regard, Eto reaffirmed the government’s position that Prices must be regulated by supply and demandtrusting that the measure helps normalize the situation. In addition, the Ministry plans to replace (buy “back”) the amount released within the year, with flexibility in the deadlines according to the market reaction. Impact on consumers and industry. While the measure is expected to reduce the price of rice, Ogawa warned that The decrease will not be immediate or uniform at all points of sale. Instead of directly impacting prices in supermarkets, released rice probably is destined for the prepared food industry, such as restaurants, hospitals and schools. What is that reserve of the nation. Japan implemented its rice reservation system in 1995, after the supply crisis caused by an unusually cold summer in 1993. Since then, since then, since then, The government maintains a stock of approximately one million tons and are stored in some 300 facilities nationwide, annually renewing 200,000 tons to guarantee the supply in emergency situations. In fact, a warehouse in Saitama, near Tokyo, allowed access to media before the ad, Showing 20,000 tons of rice, enough to fill 300 million bowls. In the past, these reserves have been used after natural disasters such as the earthquake and tsunami of 2011 in Tohoku and the Lady of Kumamoto in 2016. Now it remains to be seen that the movement has effect and the stabilization in the distribution is containing the price increase In the medium term.

The northern hemisphere has the highest snow extension of the last 20 years. In Spain that sounds like science fiction

by

While the extension of Arctic Ice was in January the second lowest Since there are satellite data, snow is giving a surprise. According to the NOAAsnow levels in the northern hemisphere are the highest in 20 years. Although the truth is that Europe (even less in Spain) we are not noticing it. What about snow in the northern hemisphere? It is soon to know. As we knowthere are many descriptors of winter in the hemisphere that may seem inconsistent with each other, but that are only a sample of the enormous climate complexity of the earth. As with Any extraordinary event (And, of course, this amount of snow is) now it remains a whole series of analysis to know what is behind and what we can expect in the coming years. So much to Nevado? So we know more detailed analysis, the increase in snow extension It is mainly due to the strong snowfall that were in early February in Asia and North America. Especially, a huge snowstorm that lasted a week caused many problems In Russia in general and In the distant this Russian in particular. In the US and Canada too They are having more Normal Snowbut the Russian storm is the key push for these historical records. And in Spain? On our side, the extension of snow in Europe is below the average. And, as a result that snowfalls are becoming more irregular, higher levels, Spain is even worse. In the Cantabrian Mountains, for example, We are at 72.6 hm³ Faced with the average of 250. In the Pyrenees, 764 compared to 1400 of the average of the last 10 years. On the other hand, the central and Iberian systems accumulate about 5 hm³ compared to 50 on average. The only one Discordant note is Sierra Nevada: The surroundings of the most southern ski resort in Europe has 12.7 hm³. That is, not only is it twice as the central mountain ranges, but almost exactly the same amount of snow as in the average of the last decade. Little snow … For now. As Nacho Espinos explained in Meteored“just 7% of the mountainous surface in Spain” is covered with snow. In aggregate terms, there are 1,160.9 hm³ of snow compared to 2,000 average. Of course, we will have to wait to see how the year ends: in the 2023/2024 season, the great snow peak came between March and April. And, honestly, time is unpredictable that (despite the “advanced spring” we are living) any scenario is reasonable.

How $ Libra and the cryptocurrency macroestaf

by

Around al Memecoin $ Libra everything has gone at a speed of infarction. It was The ball of its price, which on Friday triggered its global value until it adds several billions of dollars in a matter of hours. It was his collapse, just as resounding and accelerated. And now his controversy is being, with an intense crossing of criticism and accusations of Macroestafa Among the protagonists of what promises to be one of the most rocambolesque chapters of the brief cryptohistory. In the eye of the hurricane is Javier Milei, president of Argentina and an essential figure to understand what happened. For now, $ Libra seems to be costing him a cascade of accusations for fraud and considerable erosion of its popularity. In fact there are already those who, pulling irony and black humor, have baptized it “Ponzidente” In a wink to the famous system of Ponzi pyramidal scams. A name: $ Libra. To understand what happened, you have to go back late Friday, when Javier Milei published in networks, for the 3.8 million of followers that adds in X and the six million of Instagram, a message in which it basically promoted a cryptocurrency called $ Libra. Exactly, just like the name of his own party, La Libertad advancesLla. That the head of state of Argentina gave visibility to what he called “private project” focused on “growth” was understood as something else: an endorsement, a support, a guarantee of reliability. After all, Milei spoke from the same platforms that he often uses ads, launching opinions or heading to other world leaders. The result was expected. He lifted his mood. And there were Argentines who took advantage of their huchas to invest. Click on the image to go to Tweet. A phrase: “encourage growth”. That in networks, media and forums have not stopped commenting The tweet Published by Milei on Friday at the last minute, even though that message has already been deleted from the Argentine leader’s account, it makes enough sense. Without him it is difficult to understand everything that happened later and The consequences that may have for him in the future. After starting with a “Liberal Argentina grows !!!”, Milei presented $ Libra as an entrepreneurship focused on the development and capture of wealth. “This private project will be dedicated to encourage the growth of the Argentine economy, anchoring small Argentine businesses and ventures. The world wants to invest in Argentina.” The tweet It included a link to a platform that –Cryptopolitan needs– He already invited to suspicate and linked to a Google form to process financing applications. Other heavyweights From the extreme right Argentina helped give visibility. A figure: 4.5 billion. $ Libra grew like foam. Even more. Despite the misgivings that did not take the project and that everything indicated that the domain had been registered just a few hours before Of the launch, Milei’s tweet seemed to give wings to the Memecoin. In a very short time its market capitalization shot until they were around 4.5 billion of dollars. However, with them and after that vertiginous growth, it collapsed to the ground. The Kobeissi Letter has elaborated A thread To explain step by step the sequence in detail, but it is summarized in a simple way: in full spiral of optimism and growth, large owners of $ Libra began to liquidate huge sums of dollars in minutes, achieving millionaire earnings. Cryptopolitan Explain that when people started asking questions Insiders of $ Libra had exhausted around 87.4 million dollars. And that in just three hours. A concept: ‘rug-pull’. Shortly after the launch of the Memecoin He began to sound Anything else: a concept, Rug-Pull (“Plush pull”, in Spanish), which basically describes the fraudulent practice of those who create cryptocurrencies, attract investors and then disappear quickly, withdrawing their funds. In summary, inflate an asset artificially to capture investors and step back when the spiral is at its peak taking millionaire gains. In Your report Regarding the firm Kobbeissi Letter says that “in five hours more than 4.4 billion market capitalization was erased.” Moreover, there are means that already speak of more than 40,000 investors who have seen their money trapped in the project endorsed by Milei. Hours after launching a post promoting $ Libra, the Argentine leader’s account erased the original publication and hung Another messagevery different tone, in which it basically marks distances with the Memecoin and charge hard against their critics. A tweet: “I have no link”. “A few hours ago I published a Tweet, like so many other infinite times, supporting an alleged private venture that obviously has no link,” the Argentine leader starts in Your second message. “I was not internalized from the details of the project and after having internalized I decided not to continue disseminating (that’s why I erased the tweet).” Little has served him. After what happened the weekend, they have not stopped the reactions. The case has raised comparisons with the Trump launchwhich also grew strongly before disinfied, has given rise to criticism of the opposition and above all he has focused the focus on who is behind $ libra and to what extent he was milei aware of the risks and what ended up happening. Click on the image to go to Tweet. A reaction: complaints. Yesterday was presented a criminal complaint against Milei for “illegal association”, “scams” and “breach of the duties of a public official” and already There is news They point out that the number of claims has continued to grow. The opposition threat now With a Impeachment while the leader load against “The unclean rats of the political caste that want to take advantage of the situation” and alleges that has been directed to anti -corruption.

We are going to explain the way in which Google Maps is indicating these areas using a new icon. We will also tell you the information offered by this app in your GPS browser. How the Zbe works on Google Maps Google Maps has included indications for low emissions areas With a circular icon with a Z In the center. This is the one that is responsible for indicating the presence of the Zbe in a city. This icon It will appear when you design a routeon the informative screen prior to the start where you have to click on Start To start the route. In the description of this route, in addition to indicating traffic, if it is the most ecological, and other things, it will also tell you if there is a zbe in it. This area can also appear on the map. If you click on the indication of the low emission zoneyou will specify the vehicles that cannot enter it and the labels you need to have to do it. There will also be a link to local regulations, so you can see the possible exceptions and information about sanctions. Google Maps will go integrating this information progressively during the next months. First it will reach the largest cities or more important areas, and then little by little they will expand it to the rest of the municipalities.

Now it is more likely that Intel ends up chopped. TSMC and Broadcom are already rubbing their hands

by

In the middle of last September, just two and a half months before leaving Intel, Pat Gelsinger revealed that the company’s board of directors was wearing the possibility of Escind your manufacturing business of semiconductors in A movement very similar to the AMD In 2009. This last company broke up its integrated circuit production subsidiary and created GlobalFoundries. Since then It has been objectively well. Intel pursues the same: recover financial health and increase its competitiveness. Gelsinger is already completely disconnected from Intel, but the possibility of separating the chips manufacturing subsidiary from the rest of the company is still on the table. However, like We explain to you At the end of November, if you finally decide to do so, you will not have complete freedom. And he will not have it because he has contracted obligations with the US government as a result of the reception of the 7,860 million dollars given by the Department of Commerce as a subsidy. And also of the 3.5 billion dollars which will receive from the Department of Defense to make chips for military applications. TSMC and Broadcom are interested in getting two essential parts of Intel Intel’s commitment to the US administration directly involves the splitting of its semiconductor manufacturing division in the form of an independent subsidiary. The US government has asked Intel to maintain the property of at least 50.1% of Intel Foundry if this business unit finally got to separate and acquire the form of a new private legal entity. And now more than ever this possibility is very tangible. TSMC is preparing an offer that would allow you to control the integrated circuit manufacturing plants of Intel According to The Wall Street Journal (TWSJ), which in the field of relations between companies does not usually give stitch without thread, TSMC and Broadcom are interested in getting two fundamental parts of Intel. The Taiwanese manufacturer of semiconductors, which leads the global market with A fee close to 60%you are preparing, always according to TWSJ, an offer that would allow you Control manufacturing plants Intel integrated circuits. At the current situation this strategic decision makes sense. TSMC is interested in developing its manufacturing infrastructure beyond Taiwan’s borders with the purpose of protecting its business if a war conflict between China and its country of origin is triggered. This company currently is building new plants of semiconductor production in Arizona (USA), Germany and Japan, but adding the factories that Intel has not only in the US, but also in Europe, Israel and Asia would allow him to consolidate his expansion very quickly. Interestingly in the middle of last October CC Wei, the current president and general director of TSMC, declared that he did not contemplate The possibility of buying Intel factories. However, it is reasonable that an executive with his responsibility Do not confirm an operation of this size until it is essentially closed. Whatever TSMC is not at all the only company that is interested in getting a piece of Intel. And is that, According to TWSJthe American chip designer Broadcom is also preparing an offer to get the integrated circuit design and marketing divisions of Intel. In any case, if the TSMC initiative will finally prosper will stumble in all likelihood with the government’s opposition led by Donald Trump. Currently it is unlikely that the administration approves the purchase of such an important division of an American company by a foreign company. Especially if, in addition, your business develops in a strategic industry such as semiconductors.

What is it, how it works and requirements to use this method to renew your DNI

by

Let’s explain WHAT IS THE EXPRESS DNIa process that is beginning to deploy in Spain to expedite the process of renewing the national identity document. This process usually takes because you have to go to the police to do it, obtaining an appointment first. But now it is starting to expedite, so that renewing the ID can be very easy and fast. We are going to start explaining what the express DNI is and how this procedure works. Then we will tell you What are the requirements To be able to use this method to renew your document, and so know if you will be able to do it. What is and how the express DNI works Express DNO is a new method for renew your fast and easy IDwhich will live with the traditional method. Instead of face to face with an agent to complete some procedures such as putting your fingerprint, you will enter a cabin where everything speeds up. It’s about A multiple expedition module (ME) that are being installed in the police stations that can perform this procedure. This means that it is not in all, but in those where the DNI is renewed, that these machines are being installed. It is a double cabin, and on the other side there are an agent who can serve two people at the same time. In it, in addition to renewing the ID at the moment you will also be able to make the payment, either by card or contactless with your mobile or smart watch. These stations have technologies for biometric capture, with which you can Remove the photo of a person and get their fingerprints. Come on, the two things that are needed for you to renew the DNI can be done in this cabin. The term DNI Express refers to the fastest process without renewal, not the identity document, so what you get is exactly the same as if you do by the traditional method. The advantage of this method is that You do not need to request a previous appointmentsomething that in some cities can have a long waiting. In addition, it reduces the costs, since You don’t need to take a picture for the ID In no establishment, the machine takes it out for you. REQUIREMENTS TO USE THE EXPRESS DNI These are the requirements that you must meet to use this new service. You have to fulfill them alland if there is any that is not fulfilled you will have to renew your document for the traditional channels: They must miss 180 days or less for the expiration of the DNI, that is, to be within their renewal period. Personal data, such as address, must be maintained. The current ID chip must be in perfect condition for the module to read it without problems. It must be a renovation and not a first expedition. In any case, such renewal should not be caused by the loss or theft of the document. The fingerprints They must be read correctly. As is evident, in addition to this it will be necessary that in the police police station where the ID is renewed in your locality, one of these cabins has been installed, something that can take a little longer in some cases.

LaLiga is still determined to block IPS. Not clear that I can do it legally

by

The War between LaLiga with Cloudflare It is intensifying, and this last weekend we have seen how websites blockages (legitimate or not) Not only have they been repeated but have gone to more. There is despite doubts about the validity of these measures, and that is where it is good to explain what their legal support is. The context and the problem. LaLiga, in contact with the operators, has implemented measures that affect the services provided by cloudflare to its users. IPS (dynamic, according to LaLiga) are aimed at avoiding the illegal broadcast of football matches, but are affecting thousands of legitimate web sites and services. The reason: in Cloudflare IPS are shared and when one is blocked, all the sites associated with it are blocked. The background. The contents industry protected by intellectual property has been looking for mechanisms for years to protect your business. Among them is the modification of the legislation to for example try to avoid (or minimize) judicial intervention. That happened for example With the Sinde law. Article 138 of the Intellectual Property Law. Javier A. Master (@Javieramastre), by Maestre Abogados, published last Friday an extensive analysis entitled ‘The Affaire Cloudflare‘Explaining in detail the legal situation in this area. How he said, the mechanisms of the Sinde law “were not agile enough”, and for that is the art. 138 of the Intellectual Property Law (LPI), which in essence allows rights holders to request urgent precautionary measures against intermediaries that facilitate infractions, without the need to demonstrate that the intermediary is also offender. LaLiga “demands” the operators. What allow both art. 138 As the 139 of the LPI is that the owner of the rights can directly sue the service providers (the operators) instead of the direct offenders. For Master the situation is as follows: “With this trick, everyone is stored for each other: The plaintiffs: we only ask for the measures. It is the judge who agrees. The judge: one is asking for one, the defendant is paved. I have to grant the request. The operator: I have to pay attention to the judge. “ Violation of freedom of expression. This expert adds that these closures occur without giving those affected the opportunity to defend themselves, “in a flagrant violation of both freedom of expression and information (art. 20 of the Constitution) and of the right to effective judicial protection (art. 24 of the Constitution) “. This process effectively avoids the participation of the parties really affected in the litigation. But it should not be able to apply in this case. These measures are oriented to the urgent precautionary scope, but for example the Provincial Court of Barcelona interpreted in 2018 that these measures can be applied beyond this area. Thus, the sentence said, “it is established, for the first time, the possibility of requesting precautionary measures against intermediaries whose services use a third to violate intellectual property rights, without the requirement that the intermediary is also offender.” And the evidence, what?. In that “doubtful constitutionality,” says Maestre, there is continuously talk about “urgent precautionary measures.” However, the audition was established at least “the need for a finding of the existence of infraction,” that is, proof that this violation of intellectual property is taking place. In the case of Cloudflare, the measures are based on a technical report that has not been contrasted, and the measures apply without those affected being able to defend themselves. Plaintiffs and defendants united in collusion. Maestre points out that demanding (LaLiga) and defendants (operators such as Movistar) act in collusion in the judicial process to achieve the restriction of services without those affected being able to defend themselves. The PREVIOUS CASE JUDGMENTS They are shielding that the supposed offenders had not been “identified or located”, which would make it impossible for their defense to participate. Master makes it clear that in this case “Cloudflare is perfectly identified.” But there is damage to third parties. This expert stands out how the Article 21 of the Civil Procedure Law (LEC). According to this text, the search should be rejected when it involves damage to third parties not demanded in the procedure. Here many affected have not demanded have been –all economically harmed companies and individuals-, but still the measures have been executed anyway. Violated fundamental rights. All this points to a potential violation of several fundamental legal principles, including the Article 24 of the Constitution Spanish that guarantees the right to be heard and defend itself in a judicial process. In addition, Spanish legislation, through articles 270 of the LOPJ and 150 of the LEC, force to notify the judicial resolutions both to the parts of the process and to those who could be affected by them. According to Master, this obligation has been ignored. Images | WIRESTOCK | LaLiga In Xataka | The government wants to end unwanted commercial calls.
