Policing the internet in Germany, where hate speech, insults are a crime | 60 Minutes
60 Minutes
A 60 Minutes segment on how German prosecutors and police go after online hate speech and insults, which are crimes there. It contrasts this with the broad First Amendment protection of online speech in the US.
HN mostly cites it in unrelated threads as evidence of European speech restrictions, and some commenters call it propaganda.
