Well, there is http://tor.eff.org/eff/tor-legal-faq.html, which explains 
that it is legal and has links to a few people - such as 
http://www.chillingeffects.org/input.cgi, if you actually have a C&D 
notice - or elsewise there is http://tor.eff.org/faq-abuse.html, and I 
know I read something about what to do - explain what Tor is, be polite, 
explain that it isn't you doing that, it's some other user. All those 
pages also have German versions, though I'm not sure if you already 
found them. Hopefully someone can find the other page I'd seen about 
dealing with law enforcement.
