Yes. For us Europeans, it's much safer since there's no export of data outside the EU :)

They have strict laws for copyright infringement from what I hear... on the other hand, the FBI can't just pull out your servers :-)...

You can't distribute Nazi materials or ideology. Free speech is also limited, you can't just defame people. Also as a german business owner you are required to have an imprint with some specific info, no idea how this is for foreigners.
