Berlin 01/09/97, Angela Marquart (24) vice chair of PDS 
(german socialist party) got accused by the German 
state court of 'aiding and abetting a crime' by providing
a link to the homepage of the german autonomus-leftist fanzine
Radikal and making its use possible to "former unknown persons".
Onto the pages at www.xs4all.nl/~tank one can find the relativly
unprecise and trivial description of how to sabotage railways. 
Last autumn many German providers were blocking their
connection to the Dutch server in an act of self-censorship, 
which led to a high number of mirror sites of the 'critical
pages' around the world.
