It's the biggest fundamental change which ever happened in how software is treated legally. This is a revolution!

Under the new legislation software products become regular products; there is no liability exception any more.

If you commercially distribute defective products to end user you're in general liable for the damages these defective products cause. This now includes pure software just as any other (physical) product on the market.

If you don't know how product liability generally works in the EU, and what this means for software see here:
