They have no legal basis for the books being removed in the US, since they are in the public domain there. If they can't make German law stick, they have no recourse.
- tonyztan 9y agoThey can go for the ISPs, or push for some German law to restrict local access. Doesn't mean they should, though.
- thomastjeffery 9y agoAgain, said ISPs are US-based, and the only precedent for blocking in the US is DMCA, which considers these works public domain.
- tonyztan 9y agoI'm referring to local ISPs that German users use to access the Internet. Presumably the court can order them to block access to resources.
