There is a specific paragraph in the law stating that computer programms are exempt from private use:
“Dieser Artikel findet keine Anwendung auf Computerprogramme.”

So somehow they specifically excluded computer programs from the article that allows you to download and use everything for yourself.

As my feed is populated by a lot of German threads it is worth to note that moderate depends a lot on the country you are from. Bernie Sanders would probably be considered part of the moderate left in most of Europe while he is considered to be far left in the USA.
