In this video, as promised, I take a look at what is happening in Europe, while everyone is busy watching football. First, you have the ongoing migration crisis with Merkel's plan to "make illegality legal", which I cannot believe she actually said that on TV. I am sorry if I mix the words migrants and asylum seekers all the time. The reason for that is, that the asylum law, like the Dublin Regulation in the EU, is just the judicial foundation for mass migration. During the Football World Cup, the European Union is trying to loosen this law, making it easier for migrants to come in and regulate states, that do not follow along with the EU/UN program of resettlement and relocation.
Next up is the political pseudo showdown in Germany between Angela Merkel and her ally Horst Seehofer. These two have to have a debate about the asylum politics right now because then Horst Seehofer can play the counterpart to Angela Merkel, which may give him more votes in an upcoming election in Bavaria.
And last but not least we get another censorship... eerr... copyright protection law in Europe. For details, watch the video or read this article, which sums it up quite nicely: https://www.theverge.com/2018/6/20/17482554/eu-european-union-copyright-filter-article-11-13-passes-juri-vote

It's crazy what is happening in the world. The copyright law is scary and certainly the beginning of more control and indirect censorship over information. They might even make news channels like yours fake news in the future.
Great to see more independent media from Germany getting active. It would be awesome to see you next year at Anarchapulco. That is kind of a must go for you as you will see Luke and Dan there next to the many others changing the world. Ask them! They will tell you that this years event was amazing and next year will be a whole new dimension.
They invited me over. I will have to see how my finances are doing and how much work I have. I would definitely love to come, though it probably won´t need to be next year. But who knows.
Believe me, this is the one that might change your life. It did for me. One year ago I wasn't able to afford going there. Half a year later I pay for it with Steem. So use your time now and grind this platform for as much Steem and Steem Power you can get. And then I meet you in Acapulco next February. ;)
and also dangerous.. ask @unblogd who got robbed twice I think
@menckensgeist I heard that... Sad story :/
An example regarding DSGVO/GDPR: http://www.tronc.com/gdpr/latimes.com/
"Unfortunately, our website is currently unavailable in most European countries. We are engaged on the issue and committed to looking at options that support our full range of digital offerings to the EU market.

Yes, I think this law is really going to be trouble in the future.
Well, since the German National Team got kicked out of the WM, there's no more time to pass some devil laws! Maybe at the next huge event...
Yeah, will see how it goes. Main media topic is actually the staged fight between Merkel and Seehofer right now. Which is either thin air, so that Seehofer gains some points for his election in October, or Merkel will be replaced somehow.
