This is such a joke...does anyone really think that Google's senior executives are going to face jail time due to some trial in Italy? Laughable.

Well, they certainly wouldn't be extradited, since extradition in most of the world requires the crime they are found guilty of to also be a crime in the country of residence. I don't even think the asses who posted the video committed a crime here, let alone the guy who runs the website.

Apparently one of Google's lawyers was arrested in Italy. https://www.privacyassociation.org/index.php?option=com_cont...

Arrested? They aren't talking about any arrest on that article

They took him before a public prosecutor for a deposition. It doesn't say he was charged, but it sounds like he was detained. May "arrested" was too strong, but it certainly wasn't something that could be laughed off.

He wasn't detained.
