What about a "post at your own risk" disclaimer? Has any German/Austrian legit gone to jail for posting here?

Would attempting to access Kiwifarms (And thus reading that page) not allow the Stasi to still find an users' IP? Does this actually meaningfully solve the issue?
I would think that if they're going full-retard then mere intent to access the site would be taken as justification for prosecution just as readily as actually being able to access the site.

Please let me know if I am in error.

EDIT: Ah, they ostensibly would only be going after someone who posts on the site. Sorry, I didnt sleep well.

The issue is not so much the fact that these people are accessing Kiwi Farms in the first place but rather the German/Austrian government going after the personal information of posters suspected to be in either of those countries, forcing the usage of a VPN protects those users
 
Bravo Null for looking out for your users, so many sites in a similar situation wouldn't say anything and let their posters get vanned for saying naughty words.
 
I recommend others to read this article from the NY Times about how Germany polices speech on the Internet.
