Immediatly afterwords Domaindiscount24 disabled the complete Top-Level-Domain. Schweiger's lawyer also threaten ucrony.net with further legal action and explicitely forbid "any use of the legal documents for publication".
Ucrony.net is a loose collective of people who offer subdomains to many non-commercial projects in several countries, including photographers, musicians and bloggers, one of them

Due to the total closure of the domain by the registrar, all of those websites, blogs, email and mailinglists are affected
Ucrony.net and the plentyfact collective (

A spokesperson for plentyfact said: "To use domain registrars to get rid of unwanted content is out of proportion. Nobody expects the websites of German newspapers Bildzeitung or FAZ to go offline because somebody does not agree with an article. The attempt keep that case silent is unacceptable."
