>will GitHub be banned in Germany as well?
Not in the next few years since some years ago a push to implement DNS-level blocking met with an outcry by the German geeksphere that ultimately pushed the pirate party in elections. The plans then were dropped on fear of censorship like in GB and Australia.
But of course, this could be resurrected at some time - and Nazi symbols would be high on the list.
- hereonbusiness 12y agoI'm not really sure, don't they already block sites that contain all kinds of nazi propaganda even if they're hosted outside of Germany? If there were hundreds of accounts sharing nazi propaganda all over Github, wouldn't they be forced by law to block Github in Germany? As far as I can see it would not be against the Github terms of service to share such content as long as it doesn't violate any laws in your jurisdiction.
