Sorry, but this is NOT REALY RIGHT!
The new german LAW is talking about Software which was build to hack
sites. "Security Software like nmap, nessus etc." are not build to
do illegal hacking. (Greetings from my Advocat from Offenburg)
The german Justice can not do anything if I use the tools to secure
my network. Since i have had over a longer time heavy DoS attacks
on my Server located in Offenburg/BW/Germany, I am already known to
the Justice and the Justice know, that I use such tools.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
