In a 2009-2010 case brought against RapidShare by Atari Europe,[28] the Düsseldorf higher regional court concluded on appeal that illegal use of RapidShare was by a small minority of its users[29] and that to assume otherwise amounted to "a general suspicion of shared hosting services and their users that cannot be justified".[30] The court also observed that the site removed copyrighted material upon request and did not provide search facilities for illegal material.
