Curious: Why can Germany fine YT for something that happened in Switzerland?

  Germany has a military/police force and Google doesn’t, yet.

  Just that the video was taken in Switzerland does not mean that a German court has no jurisdiction over a user uploading said video (presumably from Germany - not clear from this article or a German source version).

    I understand, I was searching around myself for the answer, but I'm not at all versed in EU or German law. Only thing I could think of is it doesn't matter where it was filmed or who uploaded it, if was removed from german audience of youtube? Or it was filmed in Switzerland and uploaded by a German? I can't find anything in the news and I'd love to know the answer to this :)

  It looks and sounds like imperialism, but perhaps there’s a more benign reason?
