Wikimedia has been sued in at least four EU countries with the explicit aim to restrict unwated information. The EU has recently passed a directive introducing some protections against such obviously ill-intended cases. Member states will have two years to introduce protections into national law and we want to offer communities a chance to participate in the process.
