In particular, the German giant Axel Springer, which has been pursuing a copyright claim through the courts for eleven years. You might assume that copyright exists to protect intellectual property and stop one party from ripping off another's content. Axel Springer's legal team proposes that because this protection also includes the right to stop others from modifying its content, blocking ads running in the content is against the law. If the law supposes that, you may think, then the law is indeed an ass, an idiot.
