Would it be feasible (interesting?) to try a summary of the various cases and decisions actually judged on this topic? After all, lawyers opinions are less interesting than actual courts judgments on the topic.
However, such work would probably be extremely cumbersome (esp. for a technically-oriented writer): so do not take that for a request. But I am curious if such survey is simply feasible - it seems few trials on the topic have been brought to an actual end. (That's not necessarily a bad thing, but in the meantime, endless discussion goes on.)
