They filmed the screaming. Now they're being silenced.

      They them were stupid. Breaking into factories is generally prohibited. It is permissable to use this illegal footage in journalistic uses, but not if obtained illegally. You must be a third party.

      If you yourself break and enter to do this and publish this you are in hot water.

        That seems stupid, the footage exists now you can’t very well put the genie back in the bottle. Why does German law protect the interest of business above journalism? However the footage was obtained is hardly relevant

          Your statement is false.

          Journalistic use is free. Using the illegally obtained footage yourself is not. It also does not show an unusual or illegal treatment of animals as CO2 gassing is explicitly legal.

            I was basing this on your statement that it can’t be used for journalism

              It can be used for journalistic purposes, I only wrote that it couldn’t if you obtained the data illegally.

              Being handed said data by an independent informant would be a legal way to obtain said data.

              Law is weird.

                ok well yeah so whats the point of making someone delete the video? surely they could just hand it off to journalists and THEN delete it, and then what’s the point.

                to some extent I understand that there must be consequences to illegally filming on private property, but I just dont understand what possible rationalle there could be to force a purpotrator to delete said footage. It seems to send the completely wrong message
