Do the principle of territoriality in trade mark law and Article 10(2) and (3) of Directive (EU) 2015/2436 1 preclude a cease-and-desist order issued by a national court prohibiting a defendant based in Austria from using a sign protected as a national trade mark for the applicant, who is also based in Austria, as a domain name with the country code of the country of protection and on the website, even if the website hosted under that domain name is not accessible in the country of protection due to geo-blocking and the website also contains a disclaimer that the offer is not directed at customers in the country of protection?
