That's why the reasoning of the court went beyond "It's an international website".

But then German ISPs will be ordered to block the content in Germany. I don't know what's better, at least now the gutenberg.org frontpage is still accessible and theres an explanation which wouldn't be the case with an DNS b

It was just a small point which might make German think "this is a website that is legal in Germany" or even "this is a website from an entity in Germany". But it isn't, it's a US website, legal in the US and i

Those points can't be picked apart like you did. They add up and make it reasonable to argue that gutenberg.org is very well known in Germany and that lots of Germans have downloaded the books in question. The copyright owners are stil

No, but most do. So translating to German and offering German books (pretty well known ones btw) should get you thinking about German laws for a moment.

I would think that if Saudi Arabia can't access my website, it's their loss, not mine ;)

How do you think so? From the court order: "Hierfür spricht, dass die Webseite teilweise in Deutsch gehalten ist, dass auf der Seite Werke in deutscher Sprache angeboten werden [...]" And there are even more arguments by the prose

gutenberg.org has a link to view it in German on the front page. I guess if you provide several translations and use a top level domain like .org, you are more likely an international web site than an English-only .us web site.

Another example: If you're in a country where child pornography is legal, should all other countries just accept it? If you're in a country where doxxing is legal, should the victims not be able to do anything against it?

I doubt that any of that has anything to do with the reasons that there's no "mass Linux desktop adoption". And I wouldn't count Linux running Windows in a VM most of the time as a "Linux desktop".

The Autopackage project had a solution for this problem years ago called apbuild. It would search for the versions of glibc symbols and use the oldest possible ones, which resulted in portable binaries. With some quick googling I found the
