@ultem Why is it blocked ? surely writing and publishing comes under free speech / expression.

It's blocked since 2018 since Gutenberg offers several books that are still copyrighted according to German law.
For example "Der Untertan" or "Professor Unrat" by Heinrich Mann.

@ultem Ah, seems bit heavy handed, that eh. It has lots of books that are out of copyright but we can buy in physical format, people still buy physical books. Sometimes we buy books after reading them electronically.

Agreed. I'd presume that the copyright laws will be aligned within the EU or worldwide soon-ish. Hopefully not to the detriment of consumers.
