Sarkozy Opposes Rule of Law With Regard to IP

Apparently, it appears that Mr. Congeniality has sent a letter to the European Commission demanding that authorities be able to cut off people accused of violations of IP laws without judicial review.

It seems that a bill going through the European parliment has the following language:

No restriction may be imposed on the fundamental rights and freedoms of end-users without a prior ruling by the judicial authorities.

It also appears that Sarkozy thinks that this is too much of an imposition on the IP dependent industry.

The European commission told him to go pound sand.
