"Under German law, solicitors are allowed to publish the names of those accused by their clients." ....ahem... no. What he is referring to: There was a court decision that solicitors are "generally" allowed to name their clients and those accused by the clients (http://www.bverfg.de/entscheidungen/rk20071212_1bvr162506.html http://www.bverfg.de/entscheidungen/rk20071212_1bvr162506.ht..., german, sorry), but this was in a professional context. The application on a private level is unclear. The court ruled that it would be a restriction of the solicitors right of free profession if he were not to. But this is not absolute, the court only ruled that its generally possible, but other reasons might weight heavier. There is still the possibility that naming the accused in a process involving porn is an illegal invasion of privacy and - quite frankly - extortion and the right of the accused weights higher. The general consensus in germany is that this case is pretty clear and will fail in court if it wasn't some kind of advertisement joke.
