MODERATORS
To give some additional context: The Hamburg court is easily one of the worst institutions in all of Germany. They are infamous for ruling in favor of large corporations and against "the little guy". One of their judges even had the nickname "Judge Merciless". They don't care about the facts, they are just looking for a way to please the corporation without it being too obvoius.
Wait, is he the reason we call corporate apologists "schills"?
