European court rules video embedding does not infringe copyright

I have not read (nor am I qualified to interpret) the original ruling, but 
according to the article at [1]

"The Court of Justice of the European Union handed down a landmark verdict 
this week. The Court ruled that embedding copyrighted videos is not 
copyright infringement, even if the source video was uploaded without 
permission."

This seems to relate directly to the TAG's long running interest in the 
legal impediments to linking and embedding.
