Summary
The dispute concerned the content of a German website run by an Egypt travel operator. It was doubtful whether the website’s content lacked information concerning the area of business-related advertisement. The court classified this issue as an issue of consumer protection and applied Art 6 (1) Rome II Regulation.

Therefore, the interests of German consumers were likely to be adversely affected by the the content.
