Remote.com and the “German Law” Trap: An OpenClaw Warning

A 40-person startup is getting sued in Germany because they trusted an “Employer of Record” to handle the legalities? This is why “Remote” isn’t as easy as it looks on a “digital nomad” blog. We’ve been discussing these legal pitfalls on r/myclaw, EORs are a great tool, but they aren’t a shield against local labor laws. If you’re a founder, you must understand the jurisdiction you’re hiring in. You can’t just “Delete” a German employee like you can a contractor in Florida. If you’re building a remote team, use OpenClaw to streamline your operations, but don’t outsource your legal common sense to a dashboard. It’s an expensive lesson to learn.
