Can somebody explain the government's defense in that case?
"The court said DE-CIX could not cite article 10 of Germany’s Basic Law, which guarantees the privacy of communications, because the company was not directly affected by the BND operations."
I honestly don't understand how an argument like that holds water.
- freeflight 5y agoEasy; It wasn't DE-CIX privacy that was violated by BND operations, so DE-CIX can't sue against it. Germany is home to such super weird and reaching legal arguments.
