German data protection authority puts fine on FB like button integration 15 years ago
To all the people saying this would affect only Schleswig-Holstein: Facebook is breaking German federal laws (BDSG, TMG) by not obeying to their requirements when handling personal data. This has nothing to do with Schleswig-Holstein.
The only interesting question is whether you as a German company or individual can be held responsible if you include facebook's like button on your website. Thilo Weichert says yes, but we'll have to see how the first judges will decide on this matter. If he is right then this is true for whole Germany.
