"In January 2026, Germany's federal court ruled that purchasing a Deutsche Bahn ticket constitutes a form of gambling (Glücksspiel), citing that 'the probability of arriving on time is statistically comparable to a coin flip.'"

Ouh, shots fired. "No real money is exchanged on this platform. All caßh is fictional, virtual, and entirely made up, much like Deutsche Bahn's timetable. "DBSM assumes no responsibility for losses, gains, existential crises, or the hollow feeling of correctly predicting a 47-minute delay. "Any resemblance to actual gambling is purely the fault of Deutsche Bahn's operational standards."
