The Supreme Court of Denmark increased the awarded damages for torts related to the distribution of child pornography. The appellant argued that the original compensation was insufficient given the severity of the offense and the number of victims involved. The court agreed, ruling that the lower amount did not adequately reflect the harm caused to the children and the public interest in protecting them.
