"Anne Frank" Copyright Dispute Triggers VPN and Geoblocking Questions at EU's Highest Court.

"You can't put it on the internet anywhere in the world because we own the rights in one country" is some deranged bullshit.

With stacks of hundreds under the pillow.
Nothing screams "capitalism!" louder than a geofencing over Anne Frank of all things.
