That's not true - at least for Germany. Here a repeated action to earn a profit is considered commercial activity. I'm not sure what a court would think about

I'm not sure what a court would think about 10€/m, but I guess 100€/m would be considered commercial.
EDIT: the common description of being commercial in Germany is: a planned, longer term acting to make money - it's not even necessary to make a profit. Source (in German): http://www.it-recht-kanzlei.de/verbraucher-unternehmer.html http://www.it-recht-kanzlei.de/verbraucher-unternehmer.html
- kuschku 10y agoYes, but there’s a legal difference, and courts in Germany have to take Verhältnismäßigkeit into account. You can’t sue the parents of a kid selling lemonade in their frontyard, even though it’d technically be a violation of the Lebensmittelverordnung. Just like a small webblog which does not even qualify as Nebeneinkunft, and which is not taxable, would also be not relevant for such a case, unless you published it knowing it was illegal to make that money.
