      Unfortunately, the Portuguese suit was unsuccessful, because it was “too far reaching” according to ECHR, the can’t sue more than their own country and haven’t gone through their own country’s legal system before sueing in front of the ECHR.
      Only the swiss seniors’ suit (try saying that three times as fast as you can lol) was successful.
