>Can someone who is in Germany actually confirm this block is in place? Cannot confirm it, Gutenberg.org works fine for me. Edit: tried 3 different ISPs, no issues. Edit 2: Tried accessing books, this was blocked for 1/3.

Interesting, thanks. I wonder if the block was more localized then all of Germany, if it was simply misconfigured, or if they just decided to stop blocking the traffic.

  They only block the books themselves, not the index pages. Attempting to view any book will result in a block message.

    Works fine for me for all books I tested. Can you name some specific ones which are blocked for you?

      The top ten of the top 100 list are all blocked, as well as many random books in several random languages.

        All of them work for me, same with the search function or even the actual 18 books. Same ISP as freeflight. Well, that's interesting...

    I'm on one of the biggest German ISPs (Deutsche Telekom) and I can access front page and books just fine. Tried it with the HTML versions of four different books, among them "most popular" like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and A Tale of Two Cities, they all work without issue.

      Vodafone/Kabel Deutschland doesn't seem to be blocked either. (I tried a couple from the 18 that are supposed to be blocked.)

        Unitymedia doesn't seem to be blocked either.
