A First Instance Court in Hamburg held that the Respondent had infringed the Claimant's copyright by explaining to people in a video how users could circumvent adblocking software that belonged to the Claimant. The Court held that the adblocking software was an effective technical measure for the protection of a copyrighted work pursuant to the Act on Copyright and Related Rights (the Act) and that the Respondent had been in breach of §95a(3) by distributing source-codes which explained how to avoid the adblocking software and get free access without ads to the Claimant's online newspaper website.
