"This report proposes an amendment to Regulation (EC) No 864/2007, seeking to clarify what legislation is applicable to cases of breaches of rights relating to personality – the inalienable and non-transmissible right of all individuals to control the use of
their body, name, image and privacy – through online content or printed material, where the person who believes his or her rights have been infringed has the option of bringing an action for liability. This need is justified by the ease with which a claimant can currently elect to bring an action for defamation in the jurisdiction considered most likely to produce a favourable result, known as ‘libel tourism’. This amendment sets out clearer rules, for example, that in the case of a judicial complaint, the applicable law shall be the law of the country in which the most significant element of the loss or damage occurred, and, in the case of printed matter, shall be determined by sales or audience size. The report’s content could help to clarify legal proceedings in these cases while safeguarding each Member State’s own laws at the same time."@en1
