I am not a german neither do i live there. This is nanog, not denog ;)
Ok and how many german blacklists are in use? There are reasons most of
the blacklists are not based there. Its a silly story and you should
focus on the ISP using the list and not some legal thing. Thats
irrelevant here.
Technically i dont see any new points and stick to the old story.
Contact that ISP and negotiate with them.
Good luck.
bye,
Raymond.
