I mean, you're not wrong, though even the US has rather lax copyright compared to some other countries.

I wish. Unless parents proactively do anything, children will not be aware of anything. Yes, the general concept of "Nazi = bad" is known to most children but I'd wager that's pretty much it. For instance, there's not a single memorial in the towns I went to school in about WW2 that I know of.

Unfortunately, you're also severely exaggerating the "Never forget" attitude, seeing as millions support the "The Holocaust is nothing but a minor stain on German history"-party.

I'm surprised having gone through the German education system fairly recently doesn't give me any idea.

The earliest I can remember anything Nazi related being covered was in 8th grade with the book "Damals war es Friedrich".

In fact, I've double checked the entire curriculum (of my state) and nearly nothing is covered in other subjects prior to grade 8.

I'm confident that most 5th graders whose parents failed to teach them in detail don't know anything about Nazis besides them being evil and hating Jews. That's it.

I don't think German 5th graders know what Nazis are either, besides being bad if they've heard the term before. At school, history is being covered chronologically, so it takes until 9th or 10th grade to reach WW2. Outside of schools, there's genuinely not that much children will learn about Nazis, if the parents don't decide to actively teach them.

Ever seen a Mercedes A class? I don't think anyone pretending to be rich drove those, at least the older models from the early 2000s.

Violating the spirit of the law is still violating the law, at least in Germany; the EU may have similar rules.

To be honest, other programming languages aren't named any better

Pascal is just a common name, Rust is a common noun, Java is an island which you cannot find by searching for just its name, Python's a snake, C# is a musical note and C is just a letter.

How are non-ccTLDs, like .com any safer? A fascist like Trump could decide to nationalize managing them at any time

Yeah, it's just the triangle inequality.
