How much jurisdiction does a German court have in Switzerland anyway? Can’t you ask them to go to a Swiss court in Lausanne or wherever that stuff is handled? Oh wait, that would mean additional cost (like working with a lawyer in Switzerland, of all things), most likely without a ROI in the end. So, it’s easier trying to intimidate the hosting-company. If what whois provides is not enough - tough luck. Rainer
