1. as you said, it was a breach of gdpr to share personally identifiable information, which ip addresses are (this is illegal to do even if there is actual illegal activity going on, you can not share gdpr protected data with anyone except the authorities UPON receiving a warrant/other OFFICIAL request to provide the information (i.e. even a police officer writing you an email is not an official request in most cases))

2. there is no
- pornographic content -> content that is intended for sexual arousal
- pornographic content involving children -> same as the previous point but depicting individuals below the age of 18 (under german federal law, might differ in other countries)

3. hetzner tos 8.2 copied directly from their tos site: "8.2. The Customer is obligated not to publish any content that infringes on the rights of third parties or otherwise violates applicable law. This includes in particular, but is not limited to, pornographic or obscene material, extremist content or content that offends common decency, gambling, material that could seriously endanger the morals of children or young people or violate the rights of third parties (copyrights, name rights, trademark rights and data protection rights). This also includes the publication of defamatory content, insults or disparagement of persons or groups of persons."
as established since there is no pornographic content, especially none involving minors the part about pornography is not applicable in this case. since hetzner, unlike cloudflare, did not specify exactly what the issue was, parts of this paragraph other than the one on pornography could still hold legal ground if breached, let me know exactly how you think this was breached uwu

4. since there was no violation of german, eu, or international law, or tos from the side of Ashten, hetzner is in breach of contract by demanding the removal of any content

5. lmao who am i causing damage to lol?

6. my own morality has been put aside so far you have no idea, i specifically mentioned pride as an organisation because they are very keen on operating strictly within legal frameworks, which hetzner failed to do in this case.

7. asking to remove content depicting two women kissing in a context that is permitted by all domestic, eu, and international laws, as well as tos, is discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, and thus in addition of being a breach of contract, it is a violation of (not gonna list all the applicable law in the state of bavaria here, but there is a lot both on state, federal and international levels) numerous laws
