Absolutely not surprising. I am originally from Germany and the whole of Bavaria is excruciatingly underdeveloped when it comes to IT.

Outside Munich, it gets even worse as you venture deep into beer county where people who can reformat Windows are admired as the next Linus Torvalds and competition consists of people with varying degrees of beginner-level knowledge competing against each other.

Merkel once said that the internet is a new territory for all of us... I am surprised the court even understood half of this.

Bavaria only? If it had been up to Germany’s buerocrats, the whole internet would not exists.

(Also, no cars. For calling a Ford Model T an “automobile” if it still needs a human driver is misleading to consumers, according to, again, the Munich district court.)

Lol was trying to check in for a flight using Lufthansa's website today; just hangs and doesn't do anything after you enter all the forms...
