Funny observation on the side:
This content is geoblocked in Germany.
And, as far as I can tell, trying a few destinations with my VPN: only in Germany...
So what the hell is in there, that we Germans must not see???? 😆
So france, austria, works? Else, if europe, it could be not wanting to comply with GDPR. Or germnay has a few extra rules they don't like.
Edit: Switzerland works, but maybe because IP ranges aren't that exact.

Have been thinking the same at first.
But France and Austria did work. Only Germany was blocked.
Only thing that is unique to Germany I can think of is the hate speech laws that are very specific towards Nazi symbolism and Holocaust treatment.
Maybe they had some article (or comments from users...) once that collided with that and decided to just block Germany to make their life less stressful.
Fear of change and modernization. :)
😆
It's blocked on the server side, though... (nginx message).
Maybe some German "Neuland" shenanigans the page owner doesn't want to be exposed to ...
It’s a slippery slope. If you let the village know there’s a ship sailing the cosmos then next thing you know they’ll want the rathaus to use email instead of fax. Just best to follow the rules and keep things the way they are.
