    Previously, this claim was rejected by a lower-level court in Hamburg, but a new ruling by the BGH found the earlier dismissal flawed and overturned part of the appeal, sending the case back for examination.

    To me it sounds like there was some formal mishap and that the case is back to square one, from where it is likely to be rejected again. I don’t see evidence of any crazy judge this time :)

      No. This special Hamburg court is known to be very corp friendly. That’s why all the corps who have trouble with freedom on the internet go there to try and abuse the law.

      In their grounds for the judgement, they have once again displayed an utterly insane understanding (or lack thereof) of computer technology, as typical for people employed in the German legal sector.

      I wouldn’t trust them any further than I could throw a barrel of paint. (before the judges drank it)
