VIENNA, Sept 30 — A man ​convicted this year of planning a foiled attack ‌on a Taylor Swift concert ⁠in Vienna ​in 2024 lost ⁠a privacy lawsuit ‌against Disney ‌on Wednesday over the fact ⁠his ⁠parents' home was shown in the docu-series "Taylor Swift: The End of an Era".

A Vienna court ruled ‌that a ​home address does not deserve the highest level of legal protection, and that the man - identified as Beran A - no longer ​lived there ‌at the ‌time.

The ⁠address was shown for a matter of seconds and the programme did ‌not name the ​man, the ‌court heard.
