The Lufthansa profits from the deportation of foreigners (since the state pays full fees for an airport slot), but may not be subject to protest as part of an online action. Because that is reprehensible, even if it only concerned the transmission of the annual general meeting and not the actual booking business. Despite registration of the action and prior legal advice, the activist is now convicted. And what is the great damage involved? 43,000 euros for Lufthansa for alleged countermeasures ...
Sorry, but somewhere I have a problem with that. Of course, denial-of-service attacks are a problem and are a pretty massive demonstration - on the other hand, highway blockades, rail blockades or large protest marches on main roads are nothing else. That is, after all, an essential part of a demonstration that a form is chosen that is noticed due to the side effects. Standing somewhere with a candle in your hand, smiling politely, is not a demonstration, but a church convention.
The action against Lufthansa, however, had been prepared and carried out exactly like a demo - but the court ignores the right to demonstrate. It's the internet, who cares. Funny, just a few days ago, interior ministers still wanted to prevent the internet from becoming a lawless space. But they probably meant something else by that ...
Anyway, you can't explain something like this any other way: GEMA demands providers to block websites. I thought that at least a judicial determination would be necessary for something like this - yes, I know, Büssow did it without a court order, but at least he has the excuse of being part of the executive. GEMA is just a fee administration, nothing more. It's quite bold of them to make blocking demands ...
Somehow almost like a zombie from the grave: ArtRage is a painting program with what Kai Krause once understood by intuitive interface - so contrary to any form of interface style guides, horribly colorful, squeaky, and somehow like the Teletubbies. Just the Ohhhhhhh sound is missing ...
Hmm. I like the program. Don't ask me why. I just do.
Storing IP addresses by T-Online illegal:
As early as the hearing at the end of May, Voss had the impression that T-Online's lawyer had failed to convince the judge that storing IP addresses, in particular for billing purposes, was necessary. This assessment was confirmed in the decision made by the court.
Rabenhorst doesn't like the confidence vote fake either. And he links to Werner Schulz's speech as a Word file. I was so bold and made a PDF file out of it.
It's really a tragedy what's going on there and how these Prolethikers are patting themselves on the back as if they've achieved something. The cowards have been given a four-year mandate to overthrow the government - and the only thing they're throwing are the pieces - and that's it.
Sorry, but that was really no masterpiece. One would almost wish that Köhler showed backbone and common sense just once and threw the whole nonsense in the trash. Or that the complaints against the mummers before the Constitutional Court are successful.
Especially absurd is the alleged reason: they want to let the voters decide and expect chances in new elections - sorry, what? What kind of reality loss is that? The state parliaments are not composed differently just because the SPD shirks its responsibility. If the SPD were re-elected, it would have the same state parliaments and thus the same Federal Council in front of it as now.
The Special Democrats can blabber around as they want, what they are doing here is nothing more than shirking their responsibility. They don't want to be re-elected. And the mandate given to them by the voters in the last federal election doesn't interest them either.
