The implications for cybercrime are obvious, but the case by the French Supreme Court is interesting. It deals with a private law issue, where proof was needed that an e-mail has been sent by the social security services. The Court highlights a series of conditions necessary for evidence to be accepted. Obviously, a printed copy of the e-mail is not sufficient, but incredibly, that was what was used by the services!
