German Wikipedia was taken down twice (for "privacy", not piracy though). Still "illegal information". In the latter case about a former Stasi worker turned leftist member of parliament. https://www.theregister.com/2006/01/20/wikipedia_shutdown/ https://www.theregister.com/2006/01/20/wikipedia_shutdown/ The German Wikipedia site was taken down by court order this week because it mentioned the full name of a deceased Chaos Computer Club hacker, known as Tron. A Berlin court ordered the closure of the site on Tuesday after it sided with the parents of the German hacker, who wanted to prevent the online encyclopedia from publishing the real name of their son. A final ruling is expected in two weeks' time. https://web.archive.org/web/20090129160045/https://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/node/5928/ https://web.archive.org/web/20090129160045/https://cyberlaw....
