Freedom of art in that regard. The only illegal thing might be to project something to the factory

[–] barsoap@lemm.ee 1 points 22 minutes ago

Nope it's legal. §303 StGB:

Whoever, without being authorised to do so, substantially and permanently alters the appearance of an object belonging to another [...]

Projections are far from permanent. What I'm blanking on right now is whether cleaning something is captured under that wording, I vaguely remember them discussing changing it, dunno if they have. If a wall is dirty enough you can make a great graffito with nothing but a pressure washer.

Is that a thing in Germany? Genuinely asking

[–] DegenerationIP@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Yes. You can even use a swastika if the intend is clear. For example a figure throwing it into a trashcan.

I'm not a lawyer, but the word "Heil" ist not forbidden and Also its a picture of something relevant that happened. So in my opinion the Art itself is not illegal. Only the projection onto the building.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
