Obey ze law! German orders Thai woman to stop live streaming from restaurant

This is the bizarre moment a German tourist demanded that a Thai vlogger obey German filming laws - while they were eating at a restaurant in Laos.

The entitled diner confronted Twitch streamer 'Justketh' as she was broadcasting from the patio of a restaurant in Luang Prabang on March 14.

Justketh defended herself and clarified that she was only filming herself.

However, the German threatened her, saying: 'You can pay our bill or provide me with your name and address, and you will hear from my lawyer.

'If you are doing the livestream, I know it's not allowed. If you are only posting random videos or pictures, it's fine.'

When Justketh insisted that the restaurant was fine with her recording, the man continued his attempt at enforcing German privacy laws in the Southeast Asian country.

He said: 'You are not streaming in Laos, you are streaming worldwide.'

A baffled Justketh shrugged off his claims and pointed out: 'How can you use German law in Laos? You're not even from here.'

The pair's row continued, with the German tourist demanding to know justketh's name and address.

She eventually gave him her channel handle before he left, daring him to take legal action against her.

Speaking after the incident, Justketh said: 'I have been dealing with this kind of thing a lot, like worldwide and it's always by guys.

'They are losers always picking on women who travel alone. We need confidence to handle them. And maybe Muay Thai training as well.'

Under Germany's stringent photography laws, it is prohibited to take photos of people in private settings or 'in a state of helplessness'.

Photographers must also ask for a person's permission before publishing their photos online.

However, sharing photos of people is allowed if they cannot be recognised from the picture, if they were participating in a public gathering, or if they were merely part of a landscape and are not the focus of the picture.

Failure to follow the rules can lead to a lawsuit, or up to two years in prison.
