A secure democratic Net is a fundamental right

If you don't know about cars, you don't write about cars and if you don't know enough you ask an expert if you are wrong or right. 

Most articles about this trial are wrong. 

The lady in fact has not won her case because she had the right to use her professional emailbox for private emails. 

Not at all. The judge had to take into account two special facts 

* There was no internal email and internet policy (and in the best case she should have signed it before getting access to internet and email) 

* There was no procedure for the employer by which he could access the private emails or the statistical facts of the mailbox. Normally that one should have been included in the emailpolicy. 

Another lesson is that it is better to just block the private stuff you don't want to see in your network. For example if you block audio-visual attachment in your mailsystem you will already make a big saving on disk space, back up, antivirus and the works. 

Some people say that it is just stupid to try to fire someone on the grounds of email- or internetuse.
