Well, I’m afraid that, unfortunately, this ruling will ultimately never be enforced, as it would make it impossible for the powerful multibillion-dollar corporations to operate this business.
Another example of just how influential these corporations are is the fact that the most profitable piracy operation in history is even possible. Gigantic corporations of major influence have already filed multiple lawsuits over blatant intellectual property theft—yet even these players clearly stood no chance against the concentrated capital that is preventing the AI bubble from bursting immediately.
Therefore: It is the right decision, but it will almost certainly remain without consequence.

Nah, it's like how they fined them hundreds of millions of euros because it was 2 clicks on YouTube to block cookies (the law required 1 click). The result was that EU visitors to YouTube got 1 click "deny all" button for cookies. Else they'd be fined over-and-over. The same will happen here. Google will remove AI summaries in Germany. And the German people will be less stupid because of it. Hopefully this spreads to the whole EU, and then other progressive countries too
