Italy Wants Google's Execs Jailed

Italy is all mad because someone post a video onto Google’s video service, and the video was largely view as very offensive to the Italian people; although Google has complied by removing the video, Italy instead of going after a video creator, the country is going after Google’s two executives.  The prosecutors of Italy want David Drummond and George Reyes to be jailed if they found guilty in court.  Google argues that it has complied with Italy’s law, and by jailing Google’s employees for the action of a company, although the company has complied with Italy by removing the offensive video, in this very case, for not going after a video creator, everything is seeming as if Italy is launching a direct attack on a free, open Internet.  Don’t you think Italy is going wrong here?  Source.
