The way I see it this applies to all ESTAs, not just new ones. But this is not explicitly mentioned. I guess some US gubernatorial site has more info in English.
Luckily so far we have found no info on any official site that it applies to ESTAs, this might just be the german government being overcautious, which isn’t bad but might currently be incorrect.
There is evidence it applies to VISAs but not ESTAs so far.
Is there an English source for the stuff about ESTAs and does this apply retroactively or only new ESTAs?
Also, how would they know?
