As the examples mentioned here show, opening hours are not altogether uncommon on the web.
Here is another example from Germany: Certain TV shows are deemed not appropriate for kids of a certain age. This results in all broadcasters only being allowed to show them on TV at certain times. If a TV show is, for example, not appropriate for kids younger than twelve it can only be shown between 8pm and 6am.
The consortium of public broadcasters puts much of their content online, including TV shows with age limits. You can only watch those at certain times. Here is an example: http://mediathek.daserste.de/sendungen_a-z/602916_tatort/7466516_-tatort--im-abseits--in-voller-l-nge http://mediathek.daserste.de/sendungen_a-z/602916_tatort/746... (the video should be blocked for another four hours and forty minutes after this link has been posted).
I’m not sure why the public broadcasters do that. The private broadcasters don’t seem to but maybe they just don’t put any content with age limits online.
- yaix 15y agoNice, didn't know I can watch those online. Unfortunately, only between 2am and 12am, because not the entire world is in the CET timezone. 8-/
- dorian-graph 15y agoI've come across at least one government website in Australia that has 'opening hours' too.
- pavel_lishin 15y agoDoes Germany only have one time zone?
- blumentopf 15y agoYes, CET (UTC+1) and CEST (UTC+2) during summer.
- ugh 15y agoIn fact all of Western Europe, Southern Europe (minus Portugal, Greece and Turkey), Northern Europe (minus the British Isles, the Baltic states and Finland) and large parts of Eastern Europe (with the eastern border of Poland as the easternmost point) are all in one time zone. It’s still slightly funny that most kids in the world are theoretically able to view the videos at non-approved times. Will nobody think of the (non-CET) children!
